I have implemented a new decoder for SDL_sound using Core Audio which I would like to share with everybody. I hope Ryan will include it into the main distribution. (SDL_sound is a cross-platform audio library decoder that can decode various sound file formats like OGG, MP3, WAV, FLAC, etc. with a singular API.)

My repo can be found at:

The bulk of the new stuff is in coreaudio.c.

It works for both Mac OS X and iOS. Core Audio handles lots of different file formats like aiff, aifc, wav, mp3, mp4, aac, sd2, au, caf, 3gpp, 3gp2, ima, etc, so at least for Apple platforms we can shrink the dependencies a bit. And on iOS, we also get an additional potential benefit of hardware decoding for performance and battery life.

I also have a quick and dirty Xcode project in the files section at:
