QML Audio pause between loops

Playing an audio file (tested *.wav and *.mp3) with loops there is a pause between every repetition of the file. This happens with any of the Multimedia components. The pause is different on every platform and appears to by quite random in length. Tested on Android and Windows with audio files of different size and length. This is specially unpleasant when looping an 1mb mp3 audio file as background music, having about 1sec pause in between.
