Sounds like your ripping s/w is configured to rip to WMA, not WAV.  What s/w are you using for ripping?  Check it's preferences/features to see if there's an option to rip to WAV.  If not, consider EAC (http://www.exactaudiocopy.de).

So...you were able to rip to WAV alright, then?

What app are you using for encoding the WAV to FLAC?
