Mongrel users - Dec 2006 - Does send_file act differently with Mongrel than with Webrick?

Mongrel 0.3.13.3
Windows XP
Rails 1.1.6

I have a rails app that serves up mp3 files via the send_file command.  We
create a playlist (M3U) with URLs to the mp3s.  These play just fine using
Windows Media Player.  However using WinAmp we get an error "error syncing
to stream" when it tries to request the mp3.

After playing around I found that if I am running Rails under Webrick WinAmp is
able to retrieve the mp3s just fine.

Does anyone have any idea what the problem is when using Mongrel?

Regards

Maybe I''ll sound too stupid, but default mime types in WEBrick cover
.mp3 files.

Maybe you aren''t using a mime.yml file with mongrel?
