I've had the experience of music streamed as FLAC sounding different
from both raw WAV files and FLAC decoded at the server and streamed as
WAV (which sound identical to me). I take it on faith that the FLAC
decoding is working perfectly on both ends, so the difference has to be
somewhere in the additional processing the SB has to do to decode the
compressed form. These observations were made without DB testing so
you'll need to take them for what you think they're worth.

Definitely something odd going on here...FLAC and WAV sound identical
to me (server side or player side FLAC decoding) - I don't have any WMA
files to try though.
