Comment (by Cigaes):

 Does this happen only with APE files, or does it happen also if you first
 convert the whole file to WAV or FLAC?

 Concerning the second issue you mention, this is completely normal: since
 you put the {{{-ss}}} option after the {{{-i}}} option, it works by
 skipping: the input file is decoded and the unwanted samples are dropped.
 This is slower but more accurate than seeking, which is used when
 {{{-ss}}} is before {{{-i}}}.
