No, it doesn't. It advertises the same number of channels on the src and sink
size based on the element it is connected to.

I can't see a bug.
Unless you think that the gst-inspect output should somehow show the way it
computes the caps of a given pad. Which might be an intereasting idea, but
it's not what gst-inspect outputs.
