I remember you are using voice. It was discovered last week that with voice enabled and voice file present, rockbox lets the processor stay boosted (running at full frequency) all the time during playback even when it doesn't have to talk and independent from the used format. This means it will need more power than without voice and it could explain a great deal of the difference (not sure if this is the only reason in your case though). They discussed the issue and possible fixes last week in IRC, I hope this bug will be sorted out soon!
