SMIL question

It just occurred to me that in Quicktime, because begin=00:06 in my *.mp3:

<audio src="weather.mp3" id="sound" begin="00:06" dur="00:24"/>

the actual movie starts at 6 seconds, in Quicktime. In the RealPlayer it behaves and starts at 00:00.

Apart from adding 6 seconds of silence to the *.mp3 file, I don't know what else to do.

Any ideas?
