The DSP GStreamer sinks (and for mp3 you'll be using the dspmp3sink) have problems with returning their stream position afair. These was a question long ago about why the DSP continues to run at full pelt when the player is paused and iirc it came down to the fact that the DSP could not accurately return its current stream position and then (accurately) start from there again. This is my guess of what's causing your problem, but I'm sure one of the Nokia/Gstreamer chaps will be able agree/disagree with this and point you in the right direction.
