After applying this patch I get:

sndfile error: Bad parameter passed to function sf_command.
Assertion 'sf_errno == 0' failed at pulsecore/sndfile-util.c:46, function pa_sndfile_read_sample_spec(). Aborting.

Can you post the file somewhere (or send it to me privately)?

I tried googling for that filename but only found one that worked....

So perhaps it's a bad file or similar - obviously doesn't happen across the board.

I'm also using that same version of libsndfile

Ok, it turned out this is no bug in PA. It was libsndfile which was compiled without large file support because of some wrong autotool stuff. Thanks to mkbosmans for giving the hints. 
I'll file a bug against libsndfile now, this can be closed.
