I retract that, it seems band->thr = 0.0f is valid.

It returns Inf for 0 and Inf, though that's not the
problem here. Neither is that it can return negative
values, because the minimum of the ath() function is
(or rather should be) subtracted:
    coeffs[g].ath = minscale - minath;

The problem is that minath is not the minimum, only close:
    minath = ath(3410, ATH_ADD) = -5.24237967
             ath(3407, ATH_ADD) = -5.24241638

Attached patch is fixing this. With it the minimal value
of coeffs[g].ath is 0.0f.

Scratch that patch. It shouldn't be negative (fixed with
attached patch), but 0.0f is possible.

In that case band->thr is set to coeffs[g].ath:
    band->thr_quiet = band->thr = FFMAX(band->thr, coeffs[g].ath);

So band->thr still can be 0.0f, i.e. the patch checking for (band->thr > 0.0f)
is still necessary.

Best regards,
Andreas
