They loaded, but wouldn't play.  The same error I get when running the 
versions from
audacity.sourceforge.net.  The dialog comes up saying to check the sound 
card and rate.
I ran the rpmbuild --rebuild command on the src.rpm I downloaded.  I 
made no changes.
It is possible it found an mp3 library of some sort and included it 
without my intervention.

No, that isn't true.  I actually installed them and checked the help, 
about for them.
They are 1.3.4-beta.  And they don't work just like the downloads from
audacity.sourceforge.net.
