Correct, AIFF is indeed lossless and has the benefit of being natively supported by the SB. In my case, there are only a handful of files that fall prey to the gap problem. These are typically songs that span tracks or songs that otherwise start with little or no dead time. Converting those to AIFF took up a relatively insignificant amount of extra space.
>From your post in the bug it appears that you're using OS X. If you read comment #5 you might want to try replacing mov123 with ALAC as a decoder. This may eliminate your problem without having to go the AIFF route. I couldn't do this since I was on Windows, but in the end I ended up moving my music to a Linux server where I use ALAC as my decoder. This seems to have cleaned up the problem.
