No, not being able to deal with additional substreams is a bug. 
audio/vorbis applies to any ogg file with vorbis as the *first* 
substream (as determined by header page order) and players should just 
ignore any other substreams if they don't know what to do with them.

Better, players should just play the first substream with vorbis data 
they find, though such files wouldn't qualify as audio/vorbis.
