[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH] Fix bad returned format in sound file utils

'Twas brillig, and Becker, VincentX at 15/12/10 09:11 did gyre and gimble:

Thanks for this Vincent.

I thought it a little odd at first as "fi.format = i;" is run just a few
lines above, but I see that libsndfile kind of abuses the fi.format when
calling that function and uses it as an index and overwrites it with the
real format on return.

Applied now in my tree.

Thanks.
