Audio stops working on many files

iOS 7.0.4 vlc 2.2.2 will watch an episode or movie works just fine. Image and audio are fine.
After a while when I return to a movie that has either been completely or partially watched the audio no longer functions. Earphones do not output sound either. If I go to a file that has not yet been watched it's fine, but then eventually it seems that the file will get corrupt and only the video will work (no audio).
Is there a solution to this?

In version 2.3 released today, we improved audio reliability quite a bit and as far as I remember, this problem was part of the story - please update and try again :)

Just upgraded. And rebooted the iPad. No change. I have 6 episoded of a children's cartoon (5 of which my kids have watched). No audio at all on the 5 anymore. The 6th which was still new to VLC has audio and is fine.
iPad Air, wifi, 16gb, ios 7.0.4.
Episodes synched with iTunes.

Force your device to use your canadian time zone and try again :)

Ok this has resolved the problem.
Is there any way to avoid this?
I travel internationally frequently.
Thanks.

This is needed for US territories only.
