What version of sandbox and what version of transcode?  I don't see a 
problem here (on ~amd64, tho, so if you're on stable amd64...).  What 
FEATURES do you have set in your make.conf (and in emerge --info, to get 
the defaults as well)?

In general, you can turn sandbox off by setting FEATURES=-sandbox, but be 
aware that there's a reason for the sandbox, and you may be setting 
yourself up for other problems with the package and/or security.  If you 
can, try to keep at least one of userpriv or sandbox on.  IOW, you can try 
FEATURES=-userpriv as well, and see if that helps (assuming you have both 
on by default, which I believe is the portage default), but do try to keep 
at least one of the two on, just in case the ebuild is for some reason 
trying to do something unpredicted.  At least that way it can't 
accidentally delete /bin or something equally drastic.

Also try checking bugs.gentoo.org.  I'd do so but I don't have time ATM, 
and it helps to have version info, etc.
