Package: mp3burn
Version: 0.4.1-1
Severity: normal

I fetched http://www.cbc.ca/quirks/media/2004-2005/ogg/qq-2005-04-16a.ogg
and tried to burn it to CD with mp3burn.  The audio came out double-speed.
I think the problem is that ogg123 is invoked as

   ogg123 -d raw -f - -q qq-2005-04-16a.ogg

and since it's a mono input, consecutive samples in the output are
from the same channel.  Then mp3burn causes this to be interpreted as
stereo, which has alternating samples, one from one channel and the
next from the other.  Thus it goes at double speed.

Looking at the command-line arguments to ogg123, I don't see a quick
fix.  I suppose one alternative is to pipe it through sox, telling it
to convert mono to stereo, or to ask sox to do the whole job of
converting the .ogg file instead of ogg123.  I haven't tried these
alternatives.

mp3burn does a fine job of burning .mp3 files from this site.
