Bug#735447: in vlc audio is sometimes there, sometimes not there

Dear Remi,
Thank you for following it up. This is not just with one source file
but with many. The best way for me to reproduce this is to load any
video media file in vlc, forward the media file sometime and then see
pulseaudio lose the audio.

This has been happening for months. I am on testing with all updates
and still have the issue.

P.S. :- For some reason the bts didn't  tell me that somebody has
responded to the bug hence NOW subscribing to my own bug report. I
just got to my bug-report on the off-chance that there might be
something I might have left out.
