This comes up every month or so :-)
It is a bug in mpg123. mpg123 requires that all
frames either have CRC or not have CRC. The problem above
is that the Xing VBR header is a valid MP3 frame without
CRC, and the rest of the data frames use CRC.
three solutions:
1. use another player.
2. dont use -p
3. use -t (disable the Xing VBR header - it's ignored by mpg123 anyway)
