           Summary: To much buffering in decodebin2 for audio with no time
                    stamps.
    Classification: Desktop
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal

I use playbin2 with souphttpsrc to play audio over http. The problem I found is
that decodebin2 adds a multiqueue element with the max-size-bytes property set
to 2MB. This is done in gstdecodebin2.c, gst_decode_group_new().

This may be fine for video, but for audio it corresponds to several minutes of
data. The result is that the pipeline is 'buffering' for several minutes before
the first audio sample is pushed to the audio decoder.
