Dave, did you try to play the suspicious file with Frodo (I think this was the version I had before, not Dharma) ?
Also, since you're suspecting parsing problems, does it mean the Library parses the whole file, and not only the metadata ?
On my side I tried another thing. I used fre:ac audio converter to convert from FLAC to FLAC, using the "fastest encoding" setting of the FLAC encoder. For some reason I don't understand, the output FLAC files are smaller in size than the input ones (why?). Then I imported these new files into Kodi Library, and they play fine.
