I can definitely confirm that it does NOT work for me either. I now
remember noticing this (with *.ogg) files back when I installed FC2, but
then forgot about it when other more pressing issues arose. It's weird,
because the little emblem appears over the icon of an *.ogg file when
you mouse over it, and there is a tiny whir of disk activity, so it
seems like it is trying to preview it (i.e. play it as long as the mouse
stays over it) but nothing happens. Has anyone bugzilla-ed this? I'd
check myself, but I'm dead tired and going to bed. I'll check myself
tomorrow if no one replies.

Best, Darren
