I wonder if this is related to a bug with mencoder that I just
remembered (and verified for myself)

Using mencoder -vobsubout -o /dev/null dvd://1, the resulting idx file has:

id: en, index: 1


Doing nothing more than changing dvd -> dvdnav, it always comes out:

id: xx, index: 1


Unfortunately, I wasn't easily able to find, in mencoder, a line
similar to the fix posted in this thread.   But maybe these two
problems together might point to maybe a flaw in how dvdnav is being
used?
