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?
