Could you please tell me what version your 'sox' is?

[Yangxiaoda1]

It tells me that sox can't handle flac files and encounters "sox.core.SoxiError: SoXI failed with exit code 1" in several places.

Hi @Yangxiaoda1 ,

Thanks for raising this issue!

To be fair, this is not a bug in our code, I think your sox setup is corrupted or the downloaded file is corrupted. So, here is how I installed sox for this project:

conda install -c conda-forge sox

Also, the current version of sox that I have on my computer is sox: SoX v14.4.2. If the issue didn't get resolved, then please post the whole error trace.

My version of SoX is also v14.4.2. I redownloaded SoX, but it hasn't been resolved yet. The trace is:

It also used to report an error saying that sox couldn't handle flac files, and I ended up converting the .flac file to a wav file before it worked.

Since the problem has been solved, could you close this issue? Thx
