Description thedatum+bz 2021-11-27 00:23:55 UTC
Description of problem:
Seeking through a track, whether with the mouse or keyboard shortcuts, sometimes  causes the playback to go silent or stutter. Other times it plays as normal. It seems unpredictable, but the problem occurs frequently.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
clementine-1.4.0-7.rc1.20210104git479f1d4.fc35.3.x86_64 from Fedora's repository and also clementine-1.4.0rc1-2.762.g590ab22f8.fc35.x86_64.rpm downloaded from Clementine's GitHub releases: https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/releases/tag/1.4.0rc1-762-g590ab22f8

How reproducible:
Not always, but frequently.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Play a track
2. Seek forward or backwards within the track, with mouse or keyboard shortcuts
3. Repeat step 2 if problem is not observed immediately

Actual results:
Playback is silent (it is not paused because the time counter is ongoing) or audio stutters.

Expected results:
Normal audio playback after seeking.

Experiencing the same problem. Seems to happen in all Gstreamer applications - video and audio (Totem, Rhythmbox). Non gstreamer apps are not affected (VLC, web browsers) - seeking works fine.

In Gstreamer apps seeking sometimes produces silence, sometimes stuttering audio, sometimes works fine even while seeking in the same played file. Been like this for at least few weeks now. All latest updates installed.

Comment 2 thedatum+bz 2021-12-12 18:16:43 UTC
I can confirm this happens in Rhythmbox too, so it's not isolated to Clementine.

Is there a general bug report for this issue? Maybe with Gstreamer?

Comment 3 takuvata 2021-12-13 05:49:09 UTC
I opened a bug against Gstreamer component: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2031441

This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 35 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 35 on 2022-12-13.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '35'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 35 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.
