So is this always the case for the first few thousand samples of any MP3 file?

Yes, but it's only noticeable if you play those samples right after other samples that are part of the same sound. The usual situation this shows up in is in playing back music that's been broken into multiple compressed files with no gaps between them, i.e. a continuous DJ mix CD or a prog-rock album. For years people (including me) bitched at iTunes because there were drop-outs at the track transitions; this is one of the reasons why. Nowadays iTunes does something to compensate for this during playback, and I think it preserves the encoder context between consecutive tracks when ripping an album, too (but I don't know for sure.)
