What is the matching output of pulseaudio -vvvv when this happens?
Created attachment 158135 [details] pa -vvvv log The running instance of PulseAudio will have gotten killed when the log finishes.
Works just fine nowadays with latest PA and latest GStreamer releases.
This still happened a lot with various QuickTime movies. No other file types seem to have that problem. I'll try this again on my laptop.
Can you provide a new file that still shows this behaviour?
