So, sitting on the floor and I'm hitting a deadlock

src ---- decodebin ----- audioconvert ---(audio/x-raw-float) ----
deinterleave ---- queue ---- sink

the number of queue/sinks depends on the number of channels in the file
with one channel it works fine
with 2 channels it deadlocks everytime t the same point in a file.
without the queues it deadlocks instantly the first buffer is pushed
to the second sink.
