(As said, the warning is ok although you get the correct duration
because ac-3 is usually constant bit-rate, but it does not have
to be.)

This could be considered a bug but it would be a minor one.

> 3. And after decoding:  02:24:29.53

If that stays constant with another round of encoding, I
would consider it correct.
