Description of problem: [jlquinn@smaug jlquinn]$ sox -t ossdsp /dev/dsp junk.vorbis sox: Sound card appears to only support 2 channels. Overriding format Channels: 2 Rate: 8000 Segmentation fault Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sox-12.17.3-7
What kind of sound card is installed on the system? Also, are you piping raw Ogg/Vorbis encoded data into /dev/dsp? (I didn't know that sox supported decoding Ogg/Vorbis encoded audio data).
sox defaults to a bitrate that vorbis can't handle, and then ignores the resulting error. Fixed in 12.17.3-10 by adding an error message.
