Public bug reported:

Its critical as its a show-stopper. Do not downplay on this bug and do
not ask me stupid questions. Just fix it, please. Its all explained
below, so read it and let me know. If you don't understand English, send
this to someone who does.

Read ALL the following:

PROBLEM:
While playing a sound [no matter what: mp3, vorbis, FLAC, perfectly ripped], it 
RANDOMLY skips, very little, a few times (like 3x) a track. If you rewind and 
hear the same spot again, you hear no skipping.

REPRODUCTION [be careful to follow the instruction to the latter]:
Put on your headphones. Use Totem (GStreamer) or Rythmbox (GStreamer) or VLC 
Player. Play a sound (your favoruite 3 music tracks) and set your ears not to 
listen to the music but to hear glitches and skips. Do not rewind. Listen All 3 
songs. Note the times of the skips. Then hear the tracks again, but do not 
rewind. You will hear very subtle, but annoying skips in DIFFERENT places. This 
means something is wrong with ALSA/GSstreamer, not the song file itself.

Stop now. Its not the spikes and high CPU load. Do not try to put it
aside, and not to do the job. I cannot fix it, but you can. So please do
not put it into the rubbish bin, because someone may not notice the bug.
We notice it and it annoys us very much.

WHO ELSE REPORTED IT?:
People with OpenSusse. Look at this thread:
http://forums.opensuse.org/applications/multimedia/404627-stuttering-skipping-audio-through-gstreamer-8.html
They will rather first die trying to figure it out, rather than solve the 
problem. Neither will I solve it, not to mention figure out wtf is the cause.

Why annoying?:
Would you like your favourite music to skip randomly? Would you? Please fix it.

Ubuntu 9.04 64bit+ restrected extras (GStreamer)+ all updates - these
are the all info you need, because you know what you have put inside, do
you.

Please let me know if you are on the track to solve this annoying issue.

Thank you
Tomas
