UNIX 101 - sleep(1) is not guaranteed to be exactly 1 second :)

My insight's ok and you're welcome for the help, but my arithmetic
skills have fallen into disrepair...
44100 * 2 * 2 = 176400 and not 176000
Thus the command above should have been "bs=17640" and not 17600. You
can go to .01 sec accuracy with a block size of 1764 bytes if desired.
Cheers,
