[Fixed] Deadbeef: FFMPEG installed, but opus/tak not added to playlist

edit: the bug has been fixed in the development build, so it should make it into the next release build. Original post below.

------------------------------

I have installed deadbeef and ffmpeg to enable .tak playback, but it seems something is missing.

pacman -Qi deadbeef

                 libzip: for vfs_zip plugin [installed]
                 ffmpeg: for ffmpeg plugin [installed]

As you can see, ffmpeg is there. The configuration string for the deadbeef plugin reads:

aa3;oma;ac3;vqf;amr;opus;tak

But when I open any .tak file, nothing is added to the list. Starting from the cmd says (tak or opus)

[tak @ 0x7f30d40033e0] Codec type or id mismatches
[ogg @ 0x7f30d8002400] 2048 bytes of comment header remain
[libopus @ 0x7f30d800a0e0] Codec type or id mismatches

The files were generated with the official takc/opusenc, so they should be valid. My whole library consists of them and they play fine on windows via foobar2000.
I used the static build of deadbeef previously and it worked, but on this machine I decided to get the repo version since it now is supposed to support FFMPEG... does it still not?

edit: current static build (0.6.1.-5) doesn't seem to work as well... maybe a bug?

edit2: .ac3 gets loaded using ffmpeg, so the link between ffmpeg and deadbeef seems to be working. Using ARM I downgraded to 0.6.0 then 0.5.6 and both state that

==> ffmpeg support was disabled in this deadbeef release due to
==> incompatibilities with ffmpeg 0.11. It might be re-introduced soon.

0.6.1 does not, so I assumed the issue was solved...

It seems to be a bug related to artwork embedded in any file format supported by deadbeef's FFMPEG plugin. ffplay is able to play the files and display the cover art, so it must be something on deadbeef's end.
I have reported the issue on their bug tracker. Both static and non-static builds are affected.
