Package: vorbis-tools
Version: 1.0.1-1.4
Severity: normal

Starting with this '.spx' file (16K):

    http://www.metadecks.org/software/sweep/audio/demos/female_scrub.spx

Which is a female voice saying "these days... these days... (etc.) ... 
the chicken... is a rare dish."

My system can play that with 'cplay' or 'totem', but not 'ogg123':

    % ogg123 -d esd female_scrub.spx

    Audio Device:   ESounD output

    Playing: female_scrub.spx
    Ogg Speex stream: 2 channel, 8000 Hz, narrowband mode

    Done.
    % ogg123 -d alsa09 female_scrub.spx
    { same thing ... }
    % ogg123 -d oss female_scrub.spx
    { same thing ... }

...it always clicks, then is silent.  I tried to write it to a '.wav' file:

    % ogg123 -d wav -f /tmp/female_scrub.wav female_scrub.spx

    Audio Device:   WAV file output

    Playing: female_scrub.spx
    Ogg Speex stream: 2 channel, 8000 Hz, narrowband mode

    Done.
    % ls -og /tmp/female_scrub.wav
    -rw-r--r--  1 495404 Jun  6 02:16 /tmp/female_scrub.wav

...but the '.wav' is silent with any player.  Compressing
it suggests the reason:

    % gzip /tmp/female_scrub.wav
    % ls -og /tmp/female_scrub.*
    -rw-r--r--  1 584 Jun  6 02:16 /tmp/female_scrub.wav.gz

>From 495404 bytes down to 584 means it has virtually no data.  Therefore
this bug doesn't depend on my hardware or config -- because
writing to '.wav' is pure software.


Hope this helps...
