I think this is caused by the audiosink pull activation mode that shipped in
core/base 0.10.14.

It's been disabled again in CVS:

 2007-09-13  Wim Taymans  <wim.taymans at gmail.com>

        * gst-libs/gst/audio/gstbaseaudiosink.c:
        (gst_base_audio_sink_init):
        Disable pull mode scheduling, we're not ready for it yet and it subtly
        breaks a lot of things.

This is the patch/fix:

http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-base/gst-libs/gst/audio/gstbaseaudiosink.c?r1=1.87&r2=1.88

Distros might want to ship that patch.  FWIW, the problem is unlikely to appear
in any 'real' pipelines, but it causes problems with very short and simple
pipelines along the lines of src ! audioconvert ! sink.
