[Openal] Problems playing certain Ogg files with OpenAL Soft

[Stevens, Peter]

Im having problems playing certain multi-channel ogg files. So far I've
tracked the problem down to openal soft detecting that my audio buffer
does not contain the same amount of data per channel ; internally openal
soft is performing "(size % (bytesPerChannel * numChannels))==0" which
is returning non-zero. The strange thing is that the wav channels are
all clipped to be the same length. I'm wondering if the issue is with
the ogg vorbis libraries; had anybody had any similar issues? If I
neuter the sanity check everything seems to play just fine? The setup up
Im using is as follows

kernel 2.6.21
alsa audio driver
openal-soft-1.4.272
libogg-1.1.3         
libvorbis-1.1.2
