Interesting. The older version does it:
andre@bali:~>xanim +Aev90 +Sr +Wp +Zper +v video.avi
XAnim Rev 2.70.7.0 by Mark Podlipec (c) 1991-1998
Reading RIFF AVI File video.avi
Video Codec: Intel Indeo R3.2 depth=24
Audio Codec: MS ADPCM Rate=11025 Chans=1 bps=4
Frame Stats: Size=240x180 Frames=228 fps=12.0
The AVI File runs great. Including audio...
Either the port or xanim 2.8 is broken...
