I've translated the ogg files to wav, played them to make sure they're normal sounding then used sox again to make the cdr files and I still get the garbled crap. I've coastered about 6 cds (I don't think its the media, I've used Memorex for a few years now to make reliable data and audio cds).

Here is my "makecd" script for making an audio CD:

#!/bin/bash
cdrecord dev=0,5,0 -audio -pad -dao -eject *.wav

I use a SCSI drive of course.  It automatically detects that it is
speed 10 (10x burner), I'm not sure how it knows but it does.

Hope this helps, but it probably won't.  :)
