"mount" is our default configuration now. I did some looking at "play", it seems the stereo .wav files produced by cdparanoia or cdda2wav are the problem ones. Other system .wav's which are mono seem OK. the resulting .ogg or .mp3 is also fine, it just seems to be the interim format that's the problem. May not be a big issue, as I don't know how may 50MB+ .wav files folks care to have laying around, but I'll see what I can come up with.
