when i use version 3.39 i get the same problem you report (on a sun sparc10)

yet this stuff works ok with an older version of csound from 1994
there is no version number on it so i dunno what it is
here is the code that works very nicely in that older version

dummy.sco
f1 0 4096 10 1
f 0 3600

test.sco
i1	0 1 0.4
i1	1 1 0.5
i1	3 1 0.6

test.orc
sr =	8000
kr =	800
ksmps =	10
instr 1
k1	oscil	50,p4*10,1
aout	pluck	10000,220+k1,220,0,1
out	aout
endin

cat test.sco | csound -s -o stdout -Lstdin test.orc dummy.sco | play

Thank you all for your help.  I'll check into different versions.  The 
problem has just mysteriously disappeared.  The disturbing part is I 
don't know why.  I can only hope it doesn't occur again.  
 
Question: Could there be a bug in that version, and if so, how can we fix it?

Any answers are greatly apreciated.
