Ok, so after some more research, it looks like the reference samples and
the specs are in agreement that the sample rate field is 16.16 fixed
point and that only the low 16 bits of the sample rate are written.  The
real sample rate is in the AudioSpecificConfig.

New patch attached which allows high sample rates, but only writes the
low 16-bits in the stsd.

Thanks,
Justin
