I didn't have time tonight to dig deep into the metadata encoding in your files, but it looks like the files which misbehave for you all have metadata, apparently encoded differently, in both an ID3 tag and in a RIFF INFO chunk. The files which behave have metadata in only an ID3 tag. FYI, INFO chunks are optional in RIFF. To borrow from the Wikipedia article about WAV
At a minimum, the encoding should be the same in the two metadata containers. I'm not sure how MPD's decoders deal with WAV containing metadata in both RIFF INFO and ID3.

Quote:As a derivative of RIFF, WAV files can be tagged with metadata in the INFO chunk. In addition, WAV files can embed any kind of metadata, including but not limited to Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP) data[24] or ID3 tags[25] in extra chunks. The RIFF specification requires that applications ignore chunks they do not recognize and applications may not necessarily use this extra information.
