The various filter settings in the file selector are just because the
developer offers filters for a couple of well-known (and tested) audio
file formats. Those formats are explicitly supported, in some cases even
with special things happening internally. There are more formats than
those, GStreamer supports more than those, and eventually there may be
additional filters. Using "All files *.*" is okay and the default.

That's odd, but I cannot comment on it without a look at the output of
"soundconverter -d" for the attempt at loading the file.

The following build manages to convert .aiff files (IFF data, AIFF audio) here:

http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/soundconverter/2.0.4/12.fc17/noarch/soundconverter-2.0.4-12.fc17.noarch.rpm

If it still fails for you, I would need to see the terminal debug output.
