well thank you for greatly narrowing down the problem. can you play other OGG files with artsplay? hmm. arts seems to think my 44.1 kHz OGG files are 48 kHz - on i386. start artsd like so: 'artsd -l 0', then watch what it prints when you play a file with artsdplay in a different terminal. wasn't there a similar issue with OGG files with mplayer? is libogg/ libvorbis broken? -- jake...@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
