Some more information about my experience:

the bug seems to be systematic for the transition "end of OGG file" -> "begin of FLAC file". My playlist contains a lot of OGG and FLAC, and i play all of them randomly. Each time the music "pause", it's at a begin of a "FLAC" file, and the previous file played was a OGG file. Enabling/disabling gapless playback doesn't solve the problem for me.

Then, i upgraded my PC : new motherboard (gigabyte->asus), new processor (amd->intel)... and new OS (ubuntu 32 bits -> ubuntu 64 bits) installed from scratch... and the problem is still there :(

The only common point between my old and my new config is my audio adapter which is an USB audio adapter (DAC connected on a USB2 port).

Maybe this bug only happens with USB audio adapter ?
