[SoX-users] -t raw - results into encoding not specified

['2+ <ele...@gm...>]

hi
have started learning sox in order to play virrually generated
sound-files via subprocess.py
acutually this is what i've tried:

subprocess.Popen(["play", "-t", "raw", "-r", "44100", "-"],
stdin=subprocess.PIPE).communicate(instance.create_a_["h'[_thing)

well it might be sonething like
raw_thing | play -t raw -r 44100 -
in cmdln

but it complains that the encoding is not specified

cannot figure out how to
what am i missing?

the raw data generated works fime with ecasound via subprocess ..
pygame and pyao also handles it
it's an array ['h'] prepared for wave.py

i get the same error with things piped from
mpg321 -s  file.mp3

am on ubuntu-jaunty-x86
and my sox is v14.2.0

thanx in advance!
