...continues to try to play the wav file and it completely locks up the player...

I think there is something more going on here.

I have .wav files on my empeg (1.1 alpha tester) and a while back I "downgraded" from 1.1 to test the new 1.03 software with tuner support. (I've since reinsalled 1.1) When I had 1.03 installed, if I attempted to play a .wav file I just got a warning message on the display, something about "...unsupported file type" and was able to skip to the next song in the playlist without difficulty.

Perhaps it is something to do with my .wav files having been installed by 1.1 emplode, rather than emptool as in your case?
