Component: gst-plugins-good
Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

GNOME version: ---
gstreamer refuses to play certain flac files, complaining them to have bad
headers:
```
$ gst-play-1.0 ~/Musik/CC-Musik/Electro/Mizukis\ Last\ Chance/Mizukis\ Last\
Chance\ -\ Holy\ Bleep/Mizuki\'s\ Last\ Chance\ -\ Holy\ Bleep\ -\ 01\ Holy\
Bleep.flac

```
`flac -t` shows no errors on them though and other players like vlc can play
the files without any problems.
I didn't encode the file myself so I can't say with which software or
parameters they have been created. But as the song is released under Creative
Commons, I can post a link to it:
