Now, now!  Yes, I did actually reinstall it.  ;-)

Anyway, I've now purged it again, and used 'remove orphaned packages' to 
get rid of a transcriber config file that seemed to have been left 
intact for some mysterious reason.  And, having cleaned everything up, 
I've reinstalled Transcriber, and...

Bingo! It plays at the right speed!

Now there's just the very crackly sound to deal with.  That has been 
reported as a bug, and in the launchpad discussion 'lunomad' reckons to 
have solved it by replacing the libsnack.so installed by the repository 
package with the version compiled from source.  (But I think that may be 
a job for another day!)

Many thanks to Stephen and Andy for helping out with this.
