Bug when decoding a 24-bit FLAC file:
https://www.mixxx.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11654&p=38302&hilit=stability#p38302

Playing this file in Mixxx produces a distorted output and weird waveform, both with SoundSourceFLAC as well as SoundSourceSndFile.

When decoding the file with "flac -d -o 24_bps.wav 24_bps.flac" the resulting WAV file is ok. Opening the FLAC file directly in Audacity using the same FLAC version for decoding shows a very weird waveform. See the attached example file and screenshots.

Even though this might not be a Mixxx issue, we should track this bug. Other 24-bit FLAC files are decoded correctly, e.g. http://www.linnrecords.com/recording-test-files.aspx
