The issue seems to be that the "eos" event generated by "faad0" causes all   
elements downstream from it in the pipeline to pause; as a result they stop   
requesting data.  If they had continued requesting data, the object "filesrc3"   
at the head of the pipeline would have generated an "eos" itself; this is how   
it works when amarok plays an mp3 file.      
    
A possible fix therefore is to tell "faad0" not to produce an "eos" event; then    
it keeps requesting data and "filesrc3" then produces an "eos", which    
propagates down the pipeline as desired.  In particular, all components of    
"decodebin0" then receive the event, and "decodebin0" then fires the signal for    
which amarok is listening.      
    
This fixes the problem for me; I'm not knowledgeable enough about gstreamer to   
know whether it might have any unwanted side effects, so I can't claim that it   
is the proper fix for the bug, but it at least seems to be a workaround.  I'll   
attach a patch below.
