That depends on your pipeline, but in your specific one that is normal.
What will happen is that when one of the queues runs full, the demuxer
thread that pushes into that queue will block until there's space again
in the queue. And while the demuxer thread is blocked, it can't push
any new buffers into the other queue. So the other queue stays empty
and does not produce any further output either.
