The wav file also seems to suffer from too many channels. When I apply
the patch from #876778 and then the attached patch sox aborts
correctly. I did not check if there are other issues in the wav file
besides too many channels.

(Attaching the patch here since the upstream sox list doesn't seem to
list my submission).

Cheers,
