Update: I dug deeper into the Android source code and realised that
OGG files that contain ANDROID_LOOP=true in their metadata will loop,
no matter what value you use for setLooping(). Technically, it's not
a MediaPlayer bug, but it still seems like a backdoor undocumented way
of causing audio files to loop. It should at least be documented in
the SDK documentation.
