I am using the SoundEngine sample code from Apple in the CrashLanding sample to play back multiple audio files. Using the sample caf files included with CrashLanding everything works fine but when I try and use my own samplesconverted to CAF using afconvert all I get is a stony silence ;)

Does anyone have settings for afconvert that will produce a CAF file capable of being played back through OpenAL?
