[PD] recording 192khz

[iftah gabbai]

thanks miller! im actually writing the files to a usb stick which is def
fast enough for 2x192khz, 24bit, not to the SDHC, so im buffeld. it works
fine if i use jack_capture but somehow not with PD. if this is relevant im
on a fresh install of the latest raspbian OS lite

cheers
