Well here's my 'helper applications' entry
Maybe a syntax error?

Helper Applications   "voice-message/wav"

MIMI Type             "voice-message/wav"
Extension             "wav"
Open it with          "/usr/bin/mplayer"

<no quotes>


The baffling things is I can use this string
in my seamonkey browser to play the saved audio clip;
it plays just fine, using mplayer or amarok:


file:///home/<path>/voice-message.wav


I can use aplay <path/filename> and some wav 
files play
( aplay close.wav
Playing WAVE 'close.wav' : Signed 16 bit 
Little Endian, Rate 22050 Hz, Mono)

and some don't, like my voice mails:
(aplay voice-message.wav
aplay: test_wavefile:782: can't play WAVE-file 
format 0x0007 which is not PCM or FLOAT encoded)
Not sure if this matters...?

So it's got to be a seamonkey mis-config?
Here's my Seamonkey flags:
(crypt gnome ipv6 java ldap mozdevelop postgres)


KDE is the destop.
