@Astrocyte74 PR has been merged into master https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/17166 so will be in nightlies going forwards.

Can you get a new Debug Log for us to give 2 examples of this audio jumping forward bug if it occurs exactly how I described it here

"Kodi acknowledges the start of a mute in an edl file precisely at the right time.
However the problem is that instead of starting the silence it plays the next available sound which is of course the sound that comes directly after the labeled mute time ends. It will play a short or long amount of time of that audio following the marked end then silence through the end of the marked mute time until it catches up to what it played at the start of the mute."   

Probably the person(s) you need to contact here are the video and audio devs.  I'm not going to ping them here with the '@' in front of their names, but Fritsch is the audio guy and (currently retired from Kodi but extremely knowledgeable about audio and video) FernetMenta. One of those two is likely to be your best bet in sorting this issue. Audio/video processing is a bit above my paygrade  

Are you aware of how much time I have until Kodi 19 is supposed to be coming out?
I don't mind leaving it in the github if someone eventually checks it out and pushes it up the right channels (people relevant to kodi code today)
Are you on Windows? I was just adding you to see if you would atleast check out the github "https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/17328" and try to reproduce the issue and then leave a comment saying you could and I'm not crazy. Since the only other guy who knows what I'm talking about (astrocyte ^^^) isn't responding...
