 * This is a repost after Thom asked me to create a separate “ticket.”
 * Something else I’ve noticed while setting up things though, is that dynamic path’s
   work well for simple file lists, but you can’t seem to use dynamic path’s when
   using the playbackpath setting in the short code. The player doesn’t come up…
 * So for example, if the base directory is set as: “/stuff-fauserroles/downloads”
   and the playbackpath in my short code is set as: “/stuff-fauserroles/previews”
   it only outputs a normal download list without audio previews…
 * Not sure if it’s a bug, or perhaps it’s not possible to use dynamic pathways 
   for audio previews?

 * Do you actually have “fauserrole” in your shortcode? Because the dynamic path
   code is “fa-userrole” (with the hyphen). Just checking.

 * Ignore that. This is now fixed in 1.9.4.3. Thanks for the heads up on this!
