ogg vorbis files transcoded by apps won't play in Android

[John A. Barbuto]

After upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04, I'm finding that files transcoded from FLAC to Ogg Vorbis by apps won't play on my Android phone. Both banshee and soundconverter are showing this problem; files I've transcoded by hand with oggenc or gst-launch (with the following command) aren't:
gst-launch filesrc location=foo.flac ! flacdec ! audioconvert ! vorbisenc quality=0.6 ! oggmux ! filesink location=foo.ogg

I initially submitted a bug report with Android (http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17260), but it's increasingly looking like a gstreamer issue. Thoughts?

I've created two Vorbis files of Pink Floyd's "Time" for comparison, one that was transcoded from FLAC with gst-launch and the other with soundconverter:

http://www.barbuto.org/Time.works.ogg
http://www.barbuto.org/Time.doesntwork.ogg

Though they both have the same sampling/bitrate settings, the latter is slightly larger. I hope this helps.

Can this fix will be included in Oneiric?
