Title:
  [jaunty] playing ogg w ogg123 causes underruns, while play (sox) same
  file works fine

Status in libao package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: pulseaudio

  Playing an ogg file with ogg123 causes underruns (noise), while
  playing the same file with sox (play) works fine.  In the former case,
  pulseaudio uses 10% CPU steadily, vs maybe 1-2% in the latter.

  I'm not sure how to diagnose this, but I will attach two 'pulseaudio
  -v -v' files for the two cases.  These seem to indicated that in the
  ogg123 case less latency is being chosen (used?  requested?  planned
  for?).  It looks to me like both programs are using the alsa
  interface.

  I guess the desired behavior here is for whatever ogg123 is doing to
  lead to the same good behavior that sox is getting.
