Says WAV file is valid, then later says it's invalid?

[binarykitchen]

Running your latest version on ArchLinux.

nodejs-whisper says the WAV file is valid, but later the native whisper instance says it's not. Huh?

[dev:server] [Nodejs-whisper] File is a valid WAV file.

And later it says:

[dev:server] read_wav: WAV file '/home/michael-heuberger/code/binarykitchen/videomail.io/var/local/tmp/clients/videomail.io/1ef7ae52-7eab-6f50-8362-05f8c267a8f2/videomail_preview.wav' must be 16 kHz

Any ideas what this could be?
