Okay, so I sat down and tried again and made sure I was doing everything 
correctly. FFmpeg still can't generate lossless m4a files that play on 
my iPod Touch. The unit tried to play for 5 seconds (silently) then 
gives up and goes to the next song.

So I assume you are not using stock iPod firmware on your unit? What are 
you using? RockBox?

Here is the conversion command I am using:

for wav in /path/*.wav; do ./ffmpeg -i $wav -acodec alac `basename 
$wav`.m4a; done
