I now pushed both patches to master with a couple of changes (see below).

Giving a vorbis file resulted in white noise, because src/pacat is a libtool script that starts src/.libs/lt- pacat, and the symlink name doesn't propagate to the new process. These changes fixed that: -[ -L "$PA_PLAY" ] || ln -sf pacat $PA_PLAY -PA_PLAY_PROCESS_NAME="lt-pacat" +[ -L "$PA_PLAY" ] || ln -sf .libs/lt-pacat $PA_PLAY +PA_PLAY_PROCESS_NAME="paplay" -- Tanu
