>Description:

  When trying to play a CD on my G4, which does not have a direct
connection from the CD-ROM to the sound card (in fact there is no
such thing as an analogue input to the mixer), I came up with the 
following:

	% cdparanoia -S 1 -g /dev/cd0c -p 1 -Y - | \
		audioplay -f -c 2 -P 16 -s 44100 -e slinear_le

  However, this immediately exits with nothing played.

  The first part (cdparanoia) works fine, I redirected the output
to some file:

	% cdparanoia -S 1 -g /dev/cd0c -p 1 -Y - > x

  Playing this file works (though it produces a warning):

	% audioplay -f -c 2 -P 16 -s 44100 -e slinear_le x
	audioplay: bogus datasize: 0: Undefined error: 0
	[Sound comes out the speaker]

  Playing this same file via stdin does not work:

	% audioplay -f -c 2 -P 16 -s 44100 -e slinear_le < x
	[Immediately exits]
	% echo $?
	0

  A cursory look at the source seems to indicate that playing from
stdin is supported, so why doesn't it work?
