Rhythmbox can't read Ogg FLAC comments

[Joel Parker]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

I have a set of Ogg files that use FLAC as the codec (as opposed to plain .flac files). Rhythmbox can play them, but it can't read the tags for display, editing, or cataloging. A quick look at the file in a hex editor shows that the tags are indeed in the file. They use the same format as an Ogg Vorbis file, so it should be easy to make this work.
