I had a similarly confusing incident with some FLAC files intermittently 
being logged as corrupted by vlc. It turned out that I had bad RAM that 
lead to subtle differences in the files if they happened to be put onto 
the bad RAM by the kernel's file cache.

Long story short, I suggest that you check your RAM.
