These lines here in GstAudioDecoder should clip/drop the frames:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-base/tree/gst-libs/gst/audio/gstaudiodecoder.c#n936

You'll have to debug inside that code to see why it doesn't do
anything.


What's the exact segment that is configured (all the values), and the
PTS/timestamp on the buffers getting there?
