Bug Description

Mixxx detected '5A' for a 10min Mixxx recording where nothing was played.
intro_start & outro_end are at 1st and last frame, so really no audio.

this bug has no impact but it shows something is wrong with the key detection

This is the issue of almost all key detectors in the market. In many tracks there is no clear key, here the key-detectors try to guess the key. This keeps a chance to get some hits in benchmarks, but does not make sense from the DJ perspective.
I think we should allow that the key remains unknown if it is not western music or the track is so noisy or silent (like in this case) that there is no reasonable choice for a key.
