Yes, I know you're aware of it now but evidently the fix hasn't been implemented yet except in experimental builds. But I only just now in the past few minutes found out about it after spending a month freaking out terrified that all my music had someone how been corrupted. Years of collecting lossless shows and recordings and this scared the living --please stay polite-- out of me. I'm glad that its going to be fixed but wish some sort of awareness was done. The thought of having all my collection ruined was horrific.

I don't appreciate that. Until it's fixed I'm using 3.0.17.4

Still happening.

Yes, there is no new release yet.
As said in the mentionned post you can use a nightly build.
