Export VG, create a new VG and write it full with something, for example with dd. Also there might be some professional tools out there - not sure if they do more or better than this.

AuWriteElement(3)					     Library Functions Manual						 AuWriteElement(3)

Name
       AuWriteElement - write data to an ImportClient element in a flow

Synopsis
       #include <audio/audiolib.h>

       void AuWriteElement(server, flow, element, num_bytes, data, end_of_data, status)
	   AuServer *server;
	   AuFlowID flow;
	   int element;
	   AuUint32 num_bytes;
	   AuPointer data;
	   AuBool end_of_data;
	   AuStatus *status; /* RETURN */

Arguments
       server	 Specifies the connection to the audio server.

       flow	 Specifies the ID of the flow.

       element	 Specifies the index of the ImportClient element to write the data to.

       num_bytes Specifies the number of bytes of audio data to write.

       data	 Specifies the buffer to get the audio data from.

       end_of_data
		 Specifies if this is the last write for this import.

       status	 If non-NULL, flush the output buffer and return the status from the server.

Description
       AuWriteElement transfers audio data from the client application to the server, writing num_bytes from data to the ImportClient specified by
       element in the audio flow flow.	If end_of_data is AuTrue, the ImportClient's eof flag will be set when the write is completed.

Note
       If the flow is "trivial" (consisting only of an ImportClient and an ExportBucket), the num_samples fields in the ImportClient  and  Export-
       Bucket are ignored and a write past the end of the bucket will result in an AuBadLength error.

Errors
       AuBadFlow, AuBadElement, AuBadValue, AuBadLength.
