I see what you did there. You took my simple edit to highlight the
issue and assumed it was a fix .. well its not, that one line will just
produce garbage audio output as it assumes the input is float, which it
isn't.

I'm assuming you did this so I'd be spurned on to find a real fix :)

..and so I've attached my -preliminary- patch which goes a long way but
probably needs a more expert eye and also some clean up. It's the best
I can do on short notice.
