Can you guys clarify that by Rice you don't mean unary coding, but
exponential golomb coding?
that issue has confused me before, and probably others.

Marcus,
The code used in flac is a Golomb-Rice code. As flac codes residuals
(errors) after estimating the signal with a suitable model obtained
during coding, the code is chosen because it requires less bits for
smaller residuals and more bits for larger residuals.
This works because small
