[Bug 482503] [NEW] rhythmbox fails to pause some songs converted with ffmpeg

[jotomicron]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ffmpeg

I used a few .flv files and extracted their audio contents to mp3 files
with the ffmepg tool. I have ubuntu-restricted-extras and lame packages
installed. This is what I did:

$ ffmpeg -i input.flv -acodec copy output.mp3

Now, when I add output.mp3 to my Rhythmbox library, it plays alright,
but when the file is playing and if (only if) crossfading is activated,
pressing the "Play" button on Rhythmbox's toolbar, the "Pause" button on
the Music Applet, or the keyboard special Pause key, makes Rhythmbox
capture the intent to pause (the title on the window changes to "***
(paused)") while the song keeps playing. The only way to stop it is
quitting Rhythmbox or pressing the keyboard Stop key (behaviour which I
can't even do inside Rhythmbox).

Other files are ok, that is, they pause with the correct crossfading.

For now I turned crossfading off, but it is a bug nonetheless. I simply
don't know if it is rhythmbox- or ffmpeg-related.
