I've found that after a few months of Chromium being able to play back chained ogg streams from Icecast this is no longer the case. When playing back a chained ogg the decoder should be able to continue the stream without pause or stopping, I've found that at the end of every song or segment Chromium has begun to stop playback.

This issue has been raised with the Chromium developers as well, https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=175281 but I suspect, since there seems to be a bulk of reports coming from Ubuntu users, it may be possible that Ubuntu may have re-introduced the broken decoder code in their package.

At the moment, only Chromium's versions of packages are being used, so it is likely the bug exists at the Chromium level. Also, there is a report from Windows 7 as well, so it is likely with Chromium.

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Chromium since that time.

Ubuntu 12.10 (quantal) reached end-of-life on May 16, 2014.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported using currently supported versions of Chromium and Ubuntu?

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

I'm closing this now due to:

1) Issue has gone without comment for over six years
2) No response to comment #2 after over a year
3) Upstream report closed "WontFix (Closed)" on 2016/11/25
4) issue reported against a release that was EOL nearly 6 years ago
