Thanks Kevin, problem solved!

tahome,

        The format flags in your ASBD are invalid. Give this a try:

                        theFormat.mFormatFlags = kAudioFormatFlagIsBigEndian |
kAudioFormatFlagIsSignedInteger | kAudioFormatFlagIsPacked;

        ...also don't forget to change the file type parameter of
ExtAudioFileCreateNew to kAudioFileAIFFType
