right, this is assuming there was a file header, whiche there isn't.

Nope.  audio is in raw form (in general 16bits per sample little-endian).
 Again, no header information.  If you encoded at 44.1kHz, most programs
will assume this, so you probably didn't notice.  However, I encode at
32kHz, which means everything sounds like chipmunks if I don't set the
audiorate.
