WS7.1.6 - Drag-drop into Linux Mint guest truncates file...

$

I have just installed Linux Mint 14 x64 into a WS7 guest.

I have also installed the 7.1.6 tools and after a reboot of the guest it was possible to drag-drop a file from the host (Windows Explorer)  into the guest (Caja file manager).

I tested an MP3 file to check the media player on Mint.

 

But it turns out that the file is broken, it is truncated in the end so its size on Linux Mint is smaller than on Windows 7 X64 (my host).

Original size 2889 kb and size on Mint: 1782 kb.

I tried the drag-drop again thinking it was a glitch but the second file I dragged also failed this way.

 

What is causing this file truncation and what can I do about it?
