Timing pointer not available on the VLC screen while playing a FLAC file

Hi,
I have an issue with VLC and I appreciate if you could kindly make some clarification.
I have converted the 1st track of an Audio CD (classical music) successfully to a FLAC file (Media > Save/Convert) which was created successfully with a very good quality. So everything worked as expected except one thing:
The timing pointer within the horizontal bar at the bottom of the VLC screen which allows you to choose with mouse (roughly) a specific interval is no more available. If I play the very same CD from which I created the FLAC file, no problem, the pointer is there but not while playing the FLAC file.
Is it normal? If not, what is the proper way to proceed to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance,

Please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback, and then paste the
full resulting log here or on
Pastebin.com if it's too long.
Also upload a short sample of a problematic file to either
http://streams.videolan.org/upload/ or to
Zippyshare.com (200 MB max) or to
EmbedUpload.com, the latter will upload the file for you to several other hosts (use the default ones) and then post the link to the file here.
If needed cut it with DGsplit and read here about how to do it:
viewtopic.php?f=14&t=57724&p=193335#p193335
50 MB max should be enough.

As for the sample file I uploaded the file (named: 01.flac) via

Mediainfo does not give me the length, flac and avformat demuxer don't either. I'd say file borken.
