No, _vds_shared_init() isn't in playback, it's an init routine.  There
*was* a 'shortly before b4' bug that caused this because of a
sizeof(float) instead of sizeof(long).

Either vorbisfile screwed up intiializing something, an error code got
ignored, or this is due to a build against old headers or using an out
of date lib/executable against an up-to-date b4 build.  The betas,
thusfar, don't mix (except for the Ogg files themselves).
