Description Dennis Griffin 2021-03-24 21:06:56 CET 
Description of problem:  The pulseaudio player, paplay, plays ogg audio files in Mga7 and before but no longer does in Mga8 and cauldron.  Here is the list it plays in Mga7:

[dennis@noob ~]$ paplay --list-file-formats
aiff    AIFF (Apple/SGI)
au      AU (Sun/NeXT)
avr     AVR (Audio Visual Research)
caf     CAF (Apple Core Audio File)
flac    FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec)
htk     HTK (HMM Tool Kit)
iff     IFF (Amiga IFF/SVX8/SV16)
mat     MAT4 (GNU Octave 2.0 / Matlab 4.2)
mat     MAT5 (GNU Octave 2.1 / Matlab 5.0)
mpc     MPC (Akai MPC 2k)
oga     OGG (OGG Container format)
paf     PAF (Ensoniq PARIS)
pvf     PVF (Portable Voice Format)
raw     RAW (header-less)
rf64    RF64 (RIFF 64)
sd2     SD2 (Sound Designer II)
sds     SDS (Midi Sample Dump Standard)
sf      SF (Berkeley/IRCAM/CARL)
voc     VOC (Creative Labs)
w64     W64 (SoundFoundry WAVE 64)
wav     WAV (Microsoft)
wav     WAV (NIST Sphere)
wav     WAVEX (Microsoft)
wve     WVE (Psion Series 3)
xi      XI (FastTracker 2)

In Mga8 or cauldron a command like:

paplay /usr/share/sounds/KDE-Im-Connection-Lost.ogg 
will return
Failed to open audio file

There is a Fedora Forum thread that suggests the problem is with libsndfile.  See:

Comment 1 David GEIGER 2021-03-25 07:35:46 CET 
Assigning to QA now,


Advisory:
========================

Our current libsndfile package doesn't support external FLAC/Ogg/Vorbis/Opus formats anymore because of a missing build requirement during build. If one of the four devel dependency is missing all external support are disable:

configure: WARNING: *** One or more of the external libraries (ie libflac, libogg and
configure: WARNING: *** libvorbis) is either missing (possibly only the development
configure: WARNING: *** headers) or is of an unsupported version.
configure: WARNING: ***
configure: WARNING: *** Unfortunately, for ease of maintenance, the external libs
configure: WARNING: *** are an all or nothing affair.

So this update fixes this issue adding the missing build dependency on opus-devel.

mga8, x64

Before update attempted to use paplay on a flac file and was unable to open it.

$ sndfile-play CherryOBaby.ogg

Updated the three files.

Tried WAVE, PAF, SND and AIFF files with sndfile-play and paplay for completeness sake and all worked.  MP3 is not supported apparently.
