Some HLS streams are broken with v3.0.8

[Lotesdelere]

Some HLS streams don't work anymore with v3.0.8.
For instance, the ARTE stream used to start with audio only before the video stream was detected, and then the video was displayed. This is broken in v3.0.8, the stream stops when it's supposed to switch to the full stream with video and we don't even hear the audio anymore.
Reverting back to v3.0.7.1 makes it working fine.
x64 version is used in both cases with D3D11 output.

So I've tried with the latest nightly build, as of today, vlc-3.0.9-20191023-0511-win64 and it's the same.
Looks like it's an audio issue:

Changing audio output module doesn't help.
Last version which is working fine is v3.0.7.1.


Reminder:
Same behaviour with VLC for Android since v3.2.0 beta 4, previous versions are working fine:
