Sorry, I told wrong earlier in the description that using libvorbis
encoder would be a workaround. At least in Karmic, libvorbis does not
preserve tags. However, there is (or was) at least one advantage in
libvorbis versus vorbis: "The vorbis (libavc) codec provides an entry in
the header of the ogg container reporting the average bitrate, but it
doesn't appear to provide a similar bitrate header in the vorbis stream
itself. Some programs may not report the bitrate value because of this."
(http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/ffmpeg-vorbis-
vs-libvorbis-782346/) I am not sure, if this is deliberate. You can see
the difference in codec information at least when playing by VLC 1.0.2.
(It also shows wrong duration for ogg tracks no matter which of the
three encoders you use.)

Could someone tell, if the tag issue is fixed for the libvorbis encoder
used by ffmpeg, too?
