I think this is due to a change in the -x parameter setting within
lame.   The use was inverted and developers corrected it.  IIRC it
changed between version 3.96 and 3.98 of lame.

This may be due to Roku M1001 SB1 emulation which has some buffering
problems. If no data is sent to Roku within 6 secs of "start track" it
will not play anything. I think the audio start time forces some MP3
"silence" to be sent to player immediately and so keeps Roku happy
until real data starts streaming.
