opps, this is a bug in flac support. Flac tool uses the 24-in-32bit sample
format (i.e. each sample takes 32bits of space, but only 24bits contain
valid data). Ecasound's s24_le/_be format refers to packed 24bit format
(i.e. sample stored to 24bits, no extra padding), and this causes the
problem.

I've fixed this in CVS. A new pre-release, which contains this fix plus
few others, is available at:

Oops, thanks, fixed in cvs.
