Skipping the very beginning of ogg file, causing a pop

[videolanroamer]

I have a music track in ogg format which starts bang on with a synth kick drum hit with a very aggressive attack curve and, although it does have a proper fade in from zero volume, it still causes a slight pop at the start of playback in VLC even though all other audio players handle the file just fine. I tried inserting a bit of silence into the beginning of the file and it helped, so my guess is that, for some reason, VLC skips the very beginning of the file, thus starting playback from a slightly off-set position with non-zero volume. I googled far and wide for a solution from within the settings, but nothing from that avenue has helped. I tried different audio output modes, shortening file chaching time, disabling resampling, and pretty much anything and everything anyone and everyone on any forum ever said that helped them with the same issue, but to no avail. This problem doesn't happen with other audio formats, though, as when I trired decoding and re-encoding the track into a wav and a flac file, both of those worked just fine; it was just the ogg version that had this problem. Is there a away to force a bit of silence or fade-in into the beginning of playback of audio files in VLC to get around this issue? Or are there perhaps some other settings that I could try to play around with that might help? And is this a known issue that is pending to be fixed in a future patch?

Try another audio output module:

Don't forget to save the preferences and restart VLC after the changes.

Tried all of them and non of them helped. I tried adding some negative delay (-10ms) in Audio options, which, oddly enough, seemed to help a bit with the popping but of course didn't help with skipping the beginning at all, on the contrary.

Please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback, and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com or on Justpaste.it if it's too long.
