Paul, any thoughts on what's causing this? Does the playback rate patch need to be backed out or is there a problem with the test?

Please can you look at this, it's fairly frequent now and I'd like to avoid backing out bug 495040 if possible :-)

Sure, I'll have a look today.

I believe this is related to the fact the test is close the start of the AudioStream. Either the stream is taking too long to initialize, or something else. This is backed by the fact the exact same test never fails when not close to the creation of the media element. Indeed, in this test, we test the |playbackRate| property, then seek to the beginning, and test the |defaultPlaybackRate| property in the same fashion. The only difference is that we test the |playBackRate| property first. Also, this test never fails for video-only media. I'm going to investigate some more.

Just trying to work out whether it should be disabled in the meantime (top-orange).
My patch in bug 815107 may help this, I will land it today, watch this space...
