What's the duration of that file - it must be pretty long. We tend to find that very long files don't always work very well, presumably because EM training (especially in a flat-start situation) does not converge to a good alignment between the initial (poorly trained) models and the observations. In that case, the simple solution is to manually split long files into several shorter ones.
