 ffprobe and ffmpeg cannot read some wav input files - in other programs
 (e.g. audacity) they are loading fine!
 Tested with ffmpeg 1.1.3 and 1.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10 - more details
 below.

 Use the following testfile, to reproduce the problem:
 https://auphonic.com/media/share/ffmpeg-testfile.wav

 How to reproduce:
 {{{
 ffprobe -v 9 -loglevel 99 ffmpeg-testfile.wav
 }}}

 Output of ffprobe:
 {{{
