Gnome-Toaster and OGG

[RJV]

I hope the meeting went well tonight.

On to support....

I've got a large music collection in my house, which I've spent time
converting to mp3.  When ogg 1.0 came out, I switched compression formats
and have been happy (so far) with the performance of ogg.  However, today,
I ran across a problem.

I went to make a plain-jane audio cd from my mp3 and ogg collection using
my favorite audio-burning program, gtoaster (Gnome Toaster).  Everything
appeared to go well, as all tracks were burned.  However, when I went to
play the cd in a drive, all the tracks that were oggs were just blank
throughout, whereas the mp3s were actually on the disk as they should have
been.

I'm on a Linux-Mandrake 8.2 box using the ogg 1.0 rpms.  Gnome-toaster has
these default lines for oggs under the "Preferences:Filetypes" tab.

ogg123 -d oss -o dsp:/dev/stdout -

From reading the ogg123 man page, this appears to be the proper command,
but gtoaster just writes blank tracks to the cd.  At first I thought it
might be a permissions problem, so I tried from root, but the same problem
exists.

Any help would be appreciated.
