Package: vorbis-tools
Version: 1.4.0-1
Severity: normal

Debian Testing with ogg123 from vorbis-tools 1.4.0

Pulse audio is running and paplay /usr/share/gnome-games/sounds/gameover.ogg
works and correctly plays the sound through pulse.

Trying to use ogg123 with an ogg file works if -d oss or -d alsa is used,
but -d pulse (the default device, set in /etc/libao.conf, default_driver=pulse)
always results in ERROR: Cannot open device pulse.
