You could do all this monkeying or just fix the problem,
which is that unknown number of "new" samples are added to
the beginning and to the end of the audio material in the
encoding-decoding process. I do not know if this actually
happens with vorbis , but I know it does with mp3 and it is
a major pain in the *ss.
The solution could be that the encoder notes the number of
extra samples added and then the decoder deletes the same number
of samples before giving them out.
