Gustavo,
   Hi. I didn't know about file. Thanks! I don't think it's telling me
too much, or I'm not sure how to read the results. It does tell me
sample rate, which is a step forward:

bash-2.05b$ file gmc2.ogg
gmc2.ogg: Ogg data, Vorbis audio, stereo, 44100 Hz, ~128031 bps, created
by: Xiphophorus libVorbis I 20011231 (RC3)

bash-2.05b$ file examplesustain.ogg
examplesustain.ogg: Ogg data, Vorbis audio, stereo, 44100 Hz, >256000
~224000 bps, created by: Xiph.Org libVorbis I 20020717 (1.0)
bash-2.05b$

   I have an ongoing problem with the OSS part of Alsa. I noticed this
evening that the file examplesustain.ogg doesn't have the problem, while
pretty much every other ogg or wave file I play does. I was thinking
that one of these might be 16-bit, or 24-bit, etc., or something like
that, but I don't see that here.

   I looked at the man page, but nothing jumped out at me.

Thanks very much though.

- Mark
