The sound recorder is not a sound converter, it's made to record audio
in a format not to transcode files in the save dialog, that seems an
upstream feature request but a very low priority one, to send to GNOME
since those are the ones writting the software, Ubuntu will not likely
invest time in that feature

Title:
  Sound Recorder doesn't convert opened file to lossy format

Status in “gnome-media” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-media

  When I do this in gnome-sound-recorder 2.31.6-0ubuntu2
  under Ubuntu 10.10:
  1. Open Sound Recorder.
  2. File > Open something.wav
  3. Save as something.ogg

  Expected result is "something.ogg", encoded as lossy (.ogg type).
  It would choose the format based on the extension, like GIMP does.

  Actual result is a zero byte file called "something.ogg.wav".
