If the previous packet's timestamp is not known, than nothing can be done for 
vorbis.

If it's streamcopy, than this hack doesn't do anything, as a full 
initialization of the vorbis decoder would be needed (read all codebooks 
etc.).

I have ruled that out, because it would be an almost complete vorbis 
decoder :)

Thanks for your explanations. So it seems this is not a big deal afterall.
