Problems playing sounds using Android MediaPlayer

I'm having some weird issues playing sounds using Android MediaPlayer.

In my view constructor, I do this:

    clickSound = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.ggclick);
    rightSound = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.right);
    wrongSound = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.wrong);

and then when I want to play the sound:

if(prefs.getBoolean("playClick", true))
    clickSound.start();

Files are very short WAV files, and it worked. I recently upgraded my phone to version 2.2 (FRG83G), and I think when clickSound stopped working. The other two are still working.

I tried switching the click sound to ogg and then all three worked. Just for consistency, I switched the other two to ogg, and again the click sound stopped working, but the other two played successfully.

Does anyone know what is going on here?

protected MediaPlayer _mediaPlayer;  

public void playFromResource(int resId)     
     {
     if (_mediaPlayer != null)
         {
         _mediaPlayer.reset();
         }
     _mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(this, resId);
     _mediaPlayer.start();
     }
