MP3 files either don't play or play just 1 second of audio

[colbyu]

I am running Subsonic 6.0 on an Ubuntu Xenial server. None of my music files, all MP3's, will play. Some of them do play about one second of audio before going silent, while other tracks don't put out any sound at all. In all cases, the play/pause button is displaying the pause symbol, as if the player thinks that it is playing. The progress bar doesn't move, however.

My log looks like this:

I have tried purging and reinstalling Subsonic, but that did no good. Not sure what else to try...

[toolman]

Your logfile states:
[10/22/16 1:28:14 PM CDT] INFO TranscodeInputStream Starting transcoder: /var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg -i /srv/BrokenMirrors/1/Janet/JanetsMusic/Music/iTunes/iTunesMedia/Music/A.K.A.C.O.D_/Happiness/01 Happiness.m4a -map 0:0 -b:a 320k -v 0 -f mp3 -

Perhaps there's a problem with your filesystem or the files?

When I play a m4a file my log reads:
27-10-16 12:23:45 CEST] INFO TranscodeInputStream Starting transcoder: c:\subsonic\transcode\ffmpeg -i C:\ShareMusic\VA - Wedding Songs\Berlin - Take My Breath Away.m4a -map 0:0 -b:a 320k -v 0 -f mp3 -
And the song plays normally.
