No, no worries. Sometimes seeking only ends very close but not exactly
on the requested sample. No Biggie.

Loading remove file systems with liquidsoap is generally not a good
idea because liquidsoap will not detect it and expect file to be
local. We've had then reports of users having trouble playing files
because liquidsoap expects those files to always be present.

Yup.
