Do I understand correctly that it makes no sense to use resampling (for example, up to 192 kHz), if most likely there is the possibility of native sound output at 44.1 kHz, as shown at the post above?

See what your device offers in the Hi-Res=>Sample Rate options, you may be able to choose 192kHz (probably leave sample format on auto). And once selected, see what the device actually outputs at.

Any one of these can be selected and be at output.

But the question is, why choose sampling rate higher than 44.1 kHz for cd-audio flac files. Why waste CPU resources to resampling?

No point at all IMHO, if all of your music is 44.1kHz (CD quality) then set the output to that. Make sure your device is actually able to output at that rate though, some Android phones force a final conversion to 48kHz. That's one reason to use the hi-res mode, as even if you don't increase the frequency it may avoid the default modes resampling to 48kHz. If the system allows, I would enable DVC if possible too, but some combinations may not work.

According to audio info mi 11x is able to output 44,1 kHz.

CD-audio quality dominates in my music collection, but there are also hi-res files. Therefore, the option to automatically select sampling rate depending of file, would be handy.

You would not be the first to ask for that one. Frequently Requested Features List:
