I've never heard this before. I'm skeptical. Even if it were true I seriously doubt that FLAC is randomly putting in a few non-zero samples to deal with it. There is no mention of this in the FLAC documentation. I think 4candles indentification of a bug in the source code sounds like the best explanation. Good catch, 4candle & pig. We need to put something about this in the FAQ and in the etree wiki.
