Ogg123 Broken?

I gave some thought to that the other day but my look so far doesen't
show any orphaned libraries or any of that.  I have no packages
installed with any ogg related nor libao references.  It's almost like
a timing thing or something.  Some times it will blow almost
immediately and other times it will play for almost a minute or so
before blowing.  I just now tried running ogg123 remotely and it ran
quite a bit longer before blowing for the same assertion reason.  Of
course, I couldn't listen to the file being here at work away from my
box but could still run the program and wait for any errors to pop
up.  I wondered if Speakup had some wierd way of causing interferience
or something but the only effect I was aware of was silencing Speakup
with insert-keypad-enter first seemed to yield more playing time.

Yet mplayer plays this file and other oggs clear to finish without incident.
