Sorry, I've mixed the syntax between play and sox.
-x works for play and sox. My fault.

This sound reasonable but I can't test it at the moment because now I have an
other problem, too.
./src/play soxio: Unknown input file format for `testfile.wav': File type
`auto' is not known
It looks like sox misses some file formats.
Strange is also the printout of sox -h:
SUPPORTED FILE FORMATS: m3u pls
No ossdsp any more.
Last time I had checked I thank it had worked so far.
sorry for inconveniences
