In CubeMX version 4.23.0 when using  a I2S interface with a STM32F405 processor:

- under parameter settings tab the 'Real Audio Frequency' is not updated correctly when you change the 'R' divider from the I2S PLL; the 'N' multiplier however does update the frequency.

    What actually happens is that the I2S PLL multiplier and divider are not changed automatically to minimize your sample rate error.

    If this is a bug or not might be debatable. In the end I wrote a little C program to get the best N,R combination for a given sample rate.

    What is a bug though is the error calculation: With 1MHz input frequency into the I2S PLL the best combination for N,R is

    Frequency 44099.508 error -0.0011% N 429 R 4 I2SDiv 38

    If you put in the I2S configuration 'Custom Freq' and 44100Hz the frequency is calculated correctly as 44.099KHz but

    'Error between Selected and Real' is displayed as 0.22% which is clearly an error.
