Well I have to move Ross closer to "Out of the Minority" so I
give his response a +1.

I don't really get this "someone else's
software" thing.
You launched Audacity.
You set Audacity to run at
a certain sample rate.
Without a doubt if you're recording you want to
record a a hardware sample rate, not have SRC in the chain. Same for
high-quality playback.
The default use-case for any pro audio software is
going to be to have exclusive access to the audio hardware and for the user
of that software to set the hardware sample rate on a per-project
basis.
You don't want any other software messing with the
hardware configuration while the DAW is running, and you do want the DAW to
be in full control.
Sample rate is a property of the playback source
not of the OS.
Maybe this contradicts your expectations but I can't see
any logical reason for seeing it another way unless you just want everything
to "play nice together" without guaranteeing anything about the
current hardware configration.
Just my two cents.. clearly I'm in the
minority.
