Both Suse[1] and Debian[2] disputes that this is a vulnerability in libao.
Based on their investigation while an issue exists, it is not in libao, however
higher in the audio-toolchain, most likely in libmad or mpg321. There seem to
be nothing to be fixed about this in libao - ignore this CVE due to this.
