The radio streaming occasionally becomes unstable, interrupting/resuming playback in very short intervals

gst playbin seems to default buffer-duration to 1s and estimate the buffer-size from the stream rate; the duration appears to be too short in many circumstances causing playback to be paused (to fill the buffer) and then resumed
This can be observed with:
gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=http://stream-dc1.radioparadise.com/rp_192m.ogg
By contrast playback remains stable by increasing the duration to 3s:
gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=http://stream-dc1.radioparadise.com/rp_192m.ogg buffer-duration=3000000000
