Public bug reported: Steps to reproduce: 1. Play A State of Trance podcast m4a file. Notice that seek bar indicates that we are a few minutes into the song but it's actually playing the beginning. 2. Try to seek halfway through the song. Audio that starts playing is from halfway through the song but the seek bar jumps further in the song. 3. Press pause. Rhythmbox pauses. 4. Press play. Rhythmbox doesn't play.
Even though the song I'm playing is from a podcast it's not specific to the podcast area of rhythmbox. I can reproduce the issue when copying the file to my normal library. See attached screenshot. It does seem to be related to specific types of m4a files, though. I have others that don't reproduce the issue.
