Wav-file input on stdin and no seeking on the incoming stream are exclusive.
Wav is organized in chunks with headers in between (at least on header at the
start). That way if you don't do any seeking in the raw-stream or skip the
headers, you will hear blips on playback.

Why do you need to play the files from stdin?

What speaks against "mplayer -ao jack"?
