Well, this looks like an AAC decoder issue: vlc plays the stream correctly,
and sees 2 channels at 44100Hz, but ffmpeg sees 2 channels at 22050Hz.
The funny thing is that the server is also confused about this, because the
SDP contains a line saying:
	a=rtpmap:96 mpeg4-generic/22050/2

I guess it's the AAC SBR thing (someone told me that is "fakes" the sample
rate, doubling it... But I do not know this stuff, so I really have no
idea if this is the problem or not). Is SBR supported by ffmpeg?

Anyway, this is something for people that understand AAC better than me...
Maybe opening an issue on roundup (with AAC mentioned in the subject) or
starting a new thread that explicitly mentions AAC would help.
