RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
Audio files using DVI ADPCM WAV (in general) or ADPCM IMA WAV (downsampled to 8bit) experience behavior where the audio keeps skipping. This is observed in applications such as totem and rhythmbox (which use gstreamer), but not in applications such as sox and audacious (which do not).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
The customer and I were able to observe behavior on gstreamer1-1.16.1-2.el8.x86_64.

How reproducible:
With files encoded in DVI ADPCM WAV, consistently. ADPCM IMA WAV works correctly in 16 and 32bit, but only observes the issue when downsampled down to 8-bit.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. For DVI ADPCM, create file with that particular encoding.
   For ADPCM IMA, create 16 or 32 bit audio file then downsample to 8 bit using ffmpeg.
2. Play audio in application that uses gstreamer1.
3. Observe behavior.
4. Play audio in application that dos not use gstreamer1.
5. Observe behavior.

Actual results:
Audio skips forward every few moments.

Expected results:
Audio file plays normally.
