Audio waveforms still not working on master branch as of Apr 27, 2017

Description
I've run it on several Linux OSs, both from repos and flatpak stable/master and cannot get the audio waveforms to appear.
On IRC, aleb mentioned that waveforms were fixed in master and had me run flatpak run org.pitivi.Pitivi//master
to see if any errors come up on the console.
Immediately upon launch I see the following:
** (pitivi:2): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-ep7ceJT23f: Connection refused
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module"
(pitivi:2): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_proxy_new_sync: assertion 'G_IS_DBUS_CONNECTION (connection)' failed
(pitivi:2): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_proxy_get_name_owner: assertion 'G_IS_DBUS_PROXY (proxy)' failed
I created a new project, imported 1 mp4 file, added it to the timeline and see thumbnails in the video portion, but the audio portion is blank (green). Zooming changes nothing (besides the video thumbnails).
Only console output is: (pitivi:2): dconf-WARNING **: failed to commit changes to dconf: Could not connect: Connection refused
aleb then requested I open this task.
My system:
Fedora 25
1 CPU, 8 cores (Intel Core i7 9xx)
