Can you check whether you have Config -> ID3 -> "Only tag files ending
in '.mp3'" enabled? Otherwise the Ogg files get ID3 tags as well 
as Vorbis comments, and maybe Nautilus gets confused by that. 

You could try the "file" and "ogginfo" programs on your files to check
them.

My iRiver CD player didn't like the Ogg Vorbis files with ID3 tags, but
maybe their USB players are not so queasy.
