New description:

 When using the telnet interface the documentation on the wiki and the
 built in help command indicate that the following are valid speed control
 commands:
 {{{
   play speed 2x
   play speed 4x
   play speed 8x
   play speed 16x
   play speed -1x
   play speed 1/2x
   play speed 1/4x
   play speed 1/8x
   play speed 1/16x
 }}}
 In reality the commands above mostly have no effect, the following
 commands work in the expected manner:
 {{{
   play speed 3x
   play speed 5x
   play speed 10x
   play speed 20x
   play speed 30x
   play speed -3x
   play speed -5x
   play speed -10x
   play speed -20x
   play speed -30x
 }}}
 The command

  play speed -1x

 does not function at all, and the following commands produce unexpected
 behaviour:
 {{{
  play speed 1/2x  (actually sets the play speed to 1/3 normal)
  play speed 1/3x  (actually sets the play speed to 1/8 normal)
  play speed 1/4x  (actually sets the play speed to 1/16 normal)
 }}}
 It seems highly unlikely that this is intended behaviour
