--- Comment #3 from Jer Noble <jer.noble at apple.com> ---
It looks like the iOS media subsystem has gotten much more strict about extended MIME type validation. Specifically for `codecs=flac` they will only report support for the RFC4281 registered string 'fLaC'. However, WebKit has a case-insensitive cache of previous codec checks, so if anyone checks for 'flac' before checking for 'fLaC', those checks will always fail (and always succeed vice-versa if they were checked in a different order). So there's at least one intentional change and one underlying WebKit bug that is causing this behavior.
