This may be old news but it may save someone time, so here goes:
Debian unstable on i386, SlimServer 6.5.4. Ogg files stopped playing
recently (only realized it yesterday).
The error looked like this:
/usr/bin/sox soxio: Failed reading `/some/dir/some_track.ogg': unknown
file type `ogg'
It looks like sox was refactored at some recent point in Debian so that
a whole bunch of format-specific "plugin" packages are needed. I just
went ahead and installed libsox-fmt-all which brings in the whole lot
through dependencies:
