Given that binary formats work, I wonder if it is your system locale which is throwing off the ASCII format parser.

I'm not 100% sure how to test this, but perhaps try opening a terminal and running gwave like this:

LC_ALL=C gwave ...
or
LANG=C gwave ..
or
LOCALE=C gwave ...

(I can't recall which variable is the important one to set to rejig string processing rules).

What is the output of your "locale" command?
