Unable to load A-law wav files.

[aamir-gmail]

When uploading wav file with A-law codec ( sample rate 8000 ) I get a read error unknown file format, I have covert the file to wav 16-bit PCM format for it to work. I think you are using scipy to read the wav file , best would be to have librosa read the uploaded wav file. I have tested and found the linrosa can read A-law files
