Hi.

What OS/lib version are you using? The main thing I can think to look for is, 
if the file stream opened and used previously you should reset it to the 
beginning before starting to read it. It may help to post more of the source 
that's giving problems, because nothing immediately strikes me as wrong from 
what you posted.

And as a side note, from that code snippet, the OpenAL buffer isn't being 
deleted (make sure to do it after the source). :)
