There's an aiff_reader add-on (somewhere in the Haiku tree?) that works fine.
I don't think it's presently included in the official Haiku distro, maybe on
the assumption that ffmpeg will handle the job with aiff files. But we (TT
Systems) use the plugin effectively by puttingit in
/boot/home/config/settings/add-ons/media/plugins. I am able to play those
system files Pete shared without any trouble on my working Haiku installation
using R44242...as well as any other AIFF files I come across. Without the
plugin, I just get static noise when playing back AIFF files.
