If I might change the status of this bug report once again to new, and offer that it affects me also. There is a considerable amount of my media which affected by this bug. An example that I have found online is:
http://www.sueu.org.au/fileadmin/audio/PM2007/2007101Betransformed(Romans12v2).mp3

This is true for all Gstreamer powered applications (Banshee, Rythmbox, Totem, etc), but does not affect Mplayer, VLC, etc.

Re-encoding the MP3 in such programs as Audacity solves the problem, but it is most inconvenient to do so.

Any chance that this is an upstream bug?

I note that having fluendo-mp3 installed or not does not change this behaviour.

There are SOME wave files which are also affected, though I do not have any example to provide here.

Kind Regards,
Matthew

there is no indication that your issue is similar to the bug described there anyway that's an upstream bug and should be sent to bugzilla.gnome.org where the people writting the software will read it, could you do that and open a GNOME bug?

Added upstream bug report.

It seemed to have the same phenotype, so I just assumed it would have similar causes.

Kind Regards,

The bug has been resolved in the latest version of gstreamer (0.10.22), or so I am led to believe from the upstream report.

Should a backport of this version be made available for Intrepid?

Kind Regards,
Matthew
