 mythmusic does not seem to play common PCM .wav files (as ripped from a CD
 for instance). I tracked it down to this code in avfDecoder::initialize():
 {{{
     // Determine the output format
     // Given we are outputing to a sound card, this will always
     // be a PCM format
     fmt = guess_format("audio_device", NULL, NULL);
     if (!fmt)
         return FALSE;
 }}}
 It seems that there is no output format registered with the name
 "audio_device", so guess_format() returns NULL and we get the early
 return.

 The attached hack patch "fixes" it for me, although it most certainly is
 not the right solution.

 This may be related or duplicate of #4285.
