If I set it to 0, tracks play properly (but note it doesn't fix the skip
crossfading after all).

There's another similarly strange call in initiate_dir_change(), line 1791,

    queue_post(&audio_queue, Q_AUDIO_PLAY, (bool *)true);

And sure enough, if you skip a directory, the start of the first track is
missing again.

Why are these setting boolean values (especially as true compiles to 1 and
not -1, which the code would at least treat differently)?? Are these
remnants from an old version of the code or am I missing something?
