Flac was orginally devised for files with a finite length so there is a
header which includes info including the duration of the file. However
since Flac is now used for streaming - this file header is now often
just "advisory" and some players will play the full contents of the file
ignoring the duration as indicated in the header (as it could be wrong).
Some players have options to ignore or use the gheader duration when
playing the file.

ffplay is a bit odd sometimes it keeps "playing" silence beyond end of
file. 

The duration from the header was shown to be 11:44:09 but there could be
more data in the file and so ffplay keeps playing - the rubbish at end.
Check if there is rubbish at end of file - the file size should be about
53416000 bytes long.

The metadata in this file is short maybe 1-2kbytes, no cover art -  it
doesn't explain the extra length in split files.
