They get written ("hexdump -C filename|less") as ID3v2 via libid3tag, but
it seems Audacity does something that is incompatible with other ID3
implementations - thanks to a standard that is none yet [1]. One can find
a couple of earlier topics (e.g. in the Audacity Forum). Taglib can read
them as tested with Audacious. id3info/id3v2 probably reject all tags
after running into something they cannot parse. The Audacity source code
contains a couple of hacks for compatibility with iTunes and "some apps",
which cause side-effects with other apps. ;-)
