Bug Description
Binary package hint: imagination
Imagination should depend on sox for audio playback. A dependency on libsox-fmt-all would be good too since at least libsox-fmt-pulse and libsox-fmt-mp3 might be needed and they don't get installed by default with libsox1a.
It's important since imagination won't check its presence and will fail without giving a clue. Finding the reason audio fails is frustrating and users shouldn't have to deal with this.
