Hi Michael ,<br><br> Actually I will need to use ogg123 for some implementation hence libao . <br><br>So you mean even if my /dev/sound has problems I can use the vorbis libraries ( not the libao , only the vorbis libraries ) ?<br>

</div>libao is not an ogg or vorbis library. It's a completely unrelated<br>
library, for audio output - and it's unmaintained, so I don't know if<br>
anyone will be able to help you with it.<br>
<br>
Fortunately, since libao has nothing to do with ogg or vorbis, you can<br>
happily use vorbis without using libao.<br>
