To begin with, there are two channels, each delivering 16 bit samples at
44+ KHz.
In addition, your use of the term "baud" is not correct. The Baud rate is
the rate of state transitions. This is the same as bps only if each
state transition (shift in phase/frequency/amplitude) conveys only a single
bit. If, for example, each state transition carries two bits (which would
require four distinct state values), then the Baud rate is 1/2 the bps.
