Bug description:
[ Impact ]
gstreamer playback may hang after seeking.
This affects all video/audio players that use gstreamer as their backend.
The cause of the problem is a pulseaudio bug that was fixed in version 16.2
Some upstream bugs are QTBUG-122424, QTBUG-122423,
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/totem/-/issues/573
Here we backport the relevant patches:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/merge_requests/745
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/merge_requests/764
[ Test Plan ]
1. Open a movie in the Totem video player
2. Repeatedly seek back and forth for a few minutes
3. Verify that the playback never hung
4. Verify that the audio plays correctly
[ Regression potential ]
libpulse0 is a critical component of Ubuntu Desktop.
It provides the audio interface for all applications.
A bug in libpulse0 may break audio input/output in one or many applications.
