It looks like it is not the most recent CVS... Is it?

I just tried, and it seems to be producing audio at the correct bitrate.
Some time ago, I submitted a patch to set the cutoff frequency in faac.
The patch was committed in ffmpeg CVS on Tue Jan 10... Check if your
version of ffmpeg contains that change.

If it does and you are still not able to get the proper audio bitrate,
try to play with the cutoff frequency (-cutoff option of ffmpeg).

Anyway, are you sure that the bitrate of the audio produced by ffmpeg is
really 12.6kbps? (just checking... Be sure that you do not see a 4.6kbps
contained overhead ;-)
