           Summary: gstreamer cannot play some wave files
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.8.x
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Please describe the problem:
When using gstreamer to play voicemails in wav format (stored locally), the
audio output sounds choppy and incomprehensible. The wav files are in the
following format:

RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 8000 Hz

The same files can be played flawlessly using beep-media-player so I do not
think that the files are corrupt (although I would be happy to test them if
someone could suggest a utility for verifying wav files).

Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
I have no trouble playing other audio formats with gstreamer including wav files
that are of the following type:

RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, stereo 44100 Hz

Other information:
I'm running gstreamer 0.8.11 in Ubuntu Breezy.
