According to the xiph website, the recommended MIME type for Ogg files and
network streams are for video, audio, and applications video/ogg, audio/ogg
and application/ogg respectively (RFC 5334).

I've removed application/x-ogg from the Debian MIME files and the desktop
file for that reason. While application/x-ogg is still defined in
stream/network.c (as well as application/ogg), other ogg MIME types are
missing.

Without your patch I can only guess what MIME type you might be missing
where.
