(Sorry, re-discovered this in my inbox.)

Erm, this appears to almost work:

untoast -dcl voice.gsm >voice
sox -t sw -r8000 -w voice voice.wav speed 2
xmms voice.wav

That gives something playable, but I don't think it's using the right
encoding, and the 'speed 2' is clearly cheating... ;)

But yes, the issue is encoding/sampling rate/number of channels.

(If it would help I could presumably add an option to gpe-soundbite just
to save out what it uncompresses rather than play it back?)
