Java does not play particular .au files

Java does not play a particular .au file, while other tools on Solaris do playing it.

Testcase
--------
The original wakeup.au is attached to this bugreport.

# /usr/bin/audioplay wakeup.au
=> You hear the sound.

# /usr/dt/bin/sdtaudio wakeup.au
=> You hear the sound.

Now, try to play it with Java. Use the following source and compile it.

// begin source
// test case from the Java Developer Almanach, Addison Wesley
// http://javaalmanac.com/egs/javax.sound.sampled/Load.html

        System.exit(0);
      }
      new Jplay(args[0]);

  }

  public Jplay(String sound) {
    try {

      AudioInputStream stream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(new File(sound));
    
      // At present, ALAW and ULAW encodings must be converted
      // to PCM_SIGNED before it can be played

=> You don't hear the sound. The original .au can not be played by using Java, but it can be played using other tools. In Java you get an IllegalArgumentException.
