Any reason you are using libav's aac instead of faac from gst-plugins-bad? Faac
has a higher rank and is recommended on top of avenc_aac.

It seems that the aac encoder keeps producing some output even though we feed
it a 0 sized input. It looks like a libav issue to me.

What we can do is patch gst-libav to at least abort encoding data when the user
sets the state to READY to avoid a stall of the pipeline.
