Ok, that's what I thought, and therefore I don't think that the pts
should be adjusted.
For example, in input you have nb_samples = 1024:

[ frame0 - frame1023 ] [ frame1024 - frame2047 ] ...

now the encoder adds 1105 frames of side data and changes nb_samples to 1152:

[ side data 1105 frames ] [ frame0 - frame46 ] [ frame47 - frame1198 ] ...

currently what avcodec_decode_audio4 does is discarding the side data
but then adjusting the pts as if they were regular playable frames,
and in fact frame0 is shifted to 0.023s (in my case), while in the
original it's at 0.000s.
