On the homepage it says:
   MAD is a high-quality MPEG audio decoder. It currently supports MPEG-1
   and the MPEG-2 extension to lower sampling frequencies, as well as the
   de facto MPEG 2.5 format. All three audio layers -- Layer I, Layer II,
   and Layer III (i.e. MP3) -- are fully implemented.

   MAD does not yet support MPEG-2 multichannel audio (although it should
   be backward compatible with such streams) nor does it currently
   support AAC.

So it really should have support for the MPEG 2.5 layer 3 file.  Not
sure what's wrong then.  I'll need to get myself sucha file.
