I've learned a lot about OGG files in the last four days... So it may
very well be a problem related to ogmmerge.

They do. Nearly all DVD rips come with 48kHz audio, and I've also tried
some 48kHz audio tracks with the OggDS.

That might really be a problem with packet ordering inside the stream -
one of the fields I had a lot of problems with lately.

Great, I'll try them with my newer version. I'm always happy to have
cases which are known to cause problems - these are the best for
debugging :)
