Bug description

For an LTV-derived Testvector I'm seeing currently a higher max-diff difference between BASOP and Float than I've seen in April (April 23rd, ID 8ee4fc15)

  • Max. abs. diff April 23rd: 646
  • Max. abs. diff July 11th: 1531

I'm seeing this also for some neighbored bitrates, and it's not the case for EXT output:

Diff, FX - Float, July 11th: Bildschirmfoto_2025-07-14_um_09.49.57

We can see that there is now significantly less noise, but there are these few "peaks" in the diff signal, which now stand out.
