The sox module is such a pain in the ass to support that I am
considering not responding to any issues with it. Alternatively, I
might just have to include a private copy of the code and only
statically link with it, but that code will likely not get updated
often, which is a drawback. If you have sox 14.1, here is a recently
reported issue:
