Bug#739099: vorbis-tools: ogg123 manpage inadequately documents -d option

Package: vorbis-tools
Version: 1.4.0-1
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream

The manpage briefly mentions the -d option, and says it takes such
choices as 'alsa'. It further mentions that the 'alsa' option has some
sub-parameters.

However, the manpage doesn't include a sufficiently-clear example or
explanation on how to build the actual value for the -d option to
contain these options. Are they comma-separated? Colons? Use name=value
or name:value, or what..?
