1) play the files with another media program
aqualung plays the files fine
2) play other files (standard mp3s or other filetype)
other flac files (44.1/48kHz) work fine
3) switch the phonon backend gstreamer<->xine
i'm using the xine backend, since the gstreamer backend doesn't play back anything on my machine.
xine/44kHz: good playback xine/96kHz: noisy playback gstreamer/anything: no playback
(i don't want to start debugging gstreamer)
4) Also, what version of Ubuntu are you running? Are you fully updated on patches?
