piotrt:
I have experienced same problem in my VU+UNO , it might happen in other VU+ boxes.
I investigated this BUG with the openpli team , here is what we found:
-The problem is related on how gst-launch manages audio devices.
-On VU boxes there are 2 "softwares" to playback audio. The alsasink and the dvbaudiosink.
-Other(almost all) boxes like my et9200 have only the dvbaudiosink
-It seems , sometimes when playaback audio files , gstreamer trys to play using dvbaudiosink which does not work very well in VU+
they found the following solution:
diff --git a/gstdvbaudiosink.c b/gstdvbaudiosink.c
index ab38003..9e245a1100644--- a/gstdvbaudiosink.c
+++ b/gstdvbaudiosink.c@@-183,9+183,6@@ GST_STATIC_PAD_TEMPLATE(#ifdef HAVE_AMR
AMRCAPS
#endif-#ifdef HAVE_PCM- PCMCAPS-#endif));
@@-342,9+339,6@@staticGstCaps*gst_dvbaudiosink_get_caps(GstBaseSink*basesink)#ifdef HAVE_AMR
AMRCAPS
#endif-#ifdef HAVE_PCM- PCMCAPS-#endif);
#ifdef HAVE_DTS
fixing this , they generated a new
libgstdvbaudiosink.so , this modification in the library solves the isue.
You can read the complete thread , and dowload the library , here:

It would be nice , the fix is made in other distributions such as blackhole and VXI.

NOTE: there is also another BUG present in my VU+ UNO (also other vu+ boxes??) :
its an audio distortion in the left channel, when using VU+ analog RCA AUDIO OUT :: happens sometimes when playing sd/hd channels and radio.
