Thanks for the input all. We have users who report the issue with Adobe Audition-encoded files as well. The real problem is that all of the files in question apparently worked while running iOS 7, but now that they have upgraded to iOS 8, the issue presents itself.
The tools at my disposal do not indicate anything wrong with the files. Is it plausible that AVAssetReader would use a different decoding path than the built in Music app? Thanks.
