Bug Description

Binary package hint: saydate

For me saydate does not not work without installing the additional packages libsox-fmt-base and libsox-fmt-oss. Without those two packages, the output is:

sox soxio: Failed reading `-': unknown file type `ul'

After installing libsox-fmt-base it changes to:

sox raw: '-': sample rate not specified; trying 8kHz
sox raw: '-': # channels not specified; trying mono
sox soxio: Failed writing `/dev/dsp': unknown file type `ossdsp'

It is not until adding libsox-fmt-oss is installed, too, saytime works. Same problem for saytime (see bug 232290)

Using Ubuntu 8.04.
