Hi,
gst-ffmpeg doesn't handle audio with >2 channels correctly. First of all the
pad template caps use [1,2] channels (gstffmpegcodecmap.c:174) which then
results in the "pad returned caps which are not a real subset of its template
caps" error. Then, if that's fixed, it doesn't set a channel layout on the
multichannel audio which leads to other bugs.

Sample file:

(when decoding the audio with ffdec_ac3)
