Hello all,

the recent fix to the wrong access() data being returned has made an
existing bug more evident.

Before the patch, when I loaded a bunch of tracks (located into zip
files) into amarok taglib would fail to open the file and thus it
would not be able to determine tagging information and song length. If
I played all the songs one after the other, they would all play
correctly, but if I started skipping around (play 5 after 3 or replay
all the songs once they were finished), I could distinctly hear parts
of the song missing from the beginning.

After the patch, song length and tags are determined correctly, but
playing *any* song seems to drop the first seconds. I've tried copying
the files from the avfs-mounted zip to a physicial partition, and they
play correctly; cmp'ing them with the unzipper contents show no
difference. But when I play them from within the zip the initial part
of the song disappears.
