It happens over actual data.  I could whip up some short wav samples
if you'd like...

Yeah, I had noticed that in the manpage but I hadn't tried it yet
because it sounded like that was more for situations where there's
actually a bit of data missing from the beginning, which didn't

it a try, though, I'll let you know if that helps at all.
