Dear Ramon,

thanks for your message.

Had a look at this -- this bug also seems to be a leftover from the
generalisation for making nesting snd-region/snd-extract possible.  I
think before both snd-region and snd-extract only worked on sndfiles.

Did some tests and they look fine -- could you please test for you
also?

Yes, maybe it's that.

Still strange the differences between manual (collect) vs. not.
Should not make a difference actually, or maybe an elk bug?  I will
have a closer look.

All the best to all,
