What is the file size of the cut in /var/snd ? Looks like the wav format filesize limit (2GB), technically 4 but all sorts of thing have trouble above 2GB due to issues with signed Vs unsigned integers.
Basically the wav format has a length field for the audio data which is a 32 bit integer, but lots of things see this as signed (Which is a bug, but a very common one), so for stereo, 16 bit samples, @44.1KHz we get 2^31 / 4 / 44100 seconds = 12173 / 3600 Hours = 3.38 = 3Hrs, 22 minutes 48 seconds if my maths is correct.
