Please describe the problem:
When using playbin2 for gapless playback and it is transitioning to another
track, there's a period where the duration & position information don't match. 
Apparently, this is because the duration is being reported for the URI that's
being decoded, but the position is being reported from the audiosink's buffers.

It'd be nice if the duration reported always corresponded to the URI whose
samples are still playing on the audio hardware.
