Have you tried the MS-ADPCM output of sox? I haven't gotten around to
checking what it does, and have a hard time unterstanding the meaning
of block size in the ADPCM context, and interpreting ffprobe's output.

How could I test with Xaudio2, assuming I have access to Windows?

Perhaps it's just a matter of changing the BLKSIZE macro in
libavcodec/adpcm.h, if you only want to use it for adpcm_ms. I haven't
figured out whether that's the right approach. (If so, it could be made
a configurable variable, and made to default to something appropiate
for adpcm_ms.)
