The samtools error message "sequence and quality are inconsistent" 
frequently indicates that the string length differs between strings 
in columns 10 and 11 of SAM format.  That appears to be the case 
here.  I don't understand the purpose of duplicating each line using 
'paste', but the consequence is that the following read name gets 
appended to the end of some base call quality strings, increasing its 
length.  It might be more straightforward to use 'samtools sort -n'.
