Playing ogg files
Earlier this year, I ripped lots of my CDs to ogg files using
grip/cdparanoia (Debian sarge). I used ogg123 to play them. At some
point, I went back to playing music directly off CDs. Well, just
today I "apt-get install"ed grip, which triggered lots of new package
installs and "upgrades". I ripped a CD successfully, but now when I
try to play any the new ogg files or the old ones, it doesn't work.
It just repeats the first second of the song over and over again.
Here's what the ogg123 output looks like:
jrennie@desk:~/ogg$ ogg123 king_crimson/sleepless_the_concise_king_crimson/red.ogg
Audio Device: OSS audio driver output
Playing: king_crimson/sleepless_the_concise_king_crimson/red.ogg
Ogg Vorbis stream: 2 channel, 44100 Hz
Title: Red
Artist: King Crimson
Genre: 17
Date: 1993
Album: Sleepless (The Concise King Crimson)
Time: 00:00.72 [06:15.88] of 06:16.60 (113.2 kbps) Output Buffer 3.1%
Here's what ps says:
jrennie@desk:~$ ps auxw| grep ogg
jrennie 3589 1.0 0.6 9412 2452 pts/1 S+ 21:40 0:00 ogg123 king_crimson/sleepless_the_concise_king_crimson/red.ogg
jrennie 3590 0.0 0.6 9412 2452 pts/1 S+ 21:40 0:00 ogg123 king_crimson/sleepless_the_concise_king_crimson/red.ogg

I can't Ctrl-c or Ctrl-z the ogg123 process. I have to kill -9 to get
it to stop.
My machine is basically the same as it was many months ago when I did
the initial ripping and playing. Only substantial change is some
package installs and upgrades. I'm still running Sarge. Does anyone
know if there's anything I could try that might fix this problem?
Many thanks,
Jason
