HTTP Error when uploading MP3 with Flash Media Uploader

I started a new thread in the WordPress forums this morning because we seem to have a unique issue on our hands. Basically, WordPress’ Flash Media Uploader is working for every file type except for MP3. One suggestion I came across was that it might be a mod_security issue; I tried the recommended .htaccess addition, however, to little luck. It seems odd that the only file type that doesn’t work is MP3.

    Noted this in the WordPress thread too but the issue wasn’t actually file type but rather that nginx, which is running in front of Apache, had a size limitation on post requests. The solution was as simple as changing that limitation.
