You're probably running into the same problem I did when I upgraded from
0.9rc5 to 0.9rc6.  They changed one of the data structures in a
fundamental way.  Thus, these two release candidates are not binary or
code compatible.  I upgraded the SoX ALSA handler to use the rc6 and later
API, as I doubt the ALSA developers will continue to support the older
API.

If you are not running 0.9rc6 or later, upgrade and try again.
