If the problem does seem to be specific to the ogg file you're trying to use, then please upload it somewhere so that sirjuddington or me could take a look at it.
I just did an experiment. I opened a WAD whose ogg files I know work (the Doom Metal soundtrack wad,) exported D_RUNNIN.ogg as a new file, then opened it in a new wad project. It didn't crash.
But then I loaded another ogg file, a music loop I made myself and it crashed. It seems to be pretty random what crashes it and what doesn't, but maybe it has to do with the program I use to save ogg files. I used Goldwave with an ogg codec, and that program has to be almost two decades old.
But then again, even oggs saved with that program worked just fine up until a certain point, when they started crashing.
If you want here's the first ogg file that it crashed on, a loop I made of some Quake 2 music:

It did it again. I just loaded this file again into a new PK3 and it crashed the minute I tried to play it. Very eager to see what you find on your end.
