The same Problem i have also, I have many Testet, all mp3 resampled, all mp3 checked, 1000 % ok, but one Time every Night i have the great silence output on stream.
I have posted in forum, this and that, all checked, icecast of error, naving, ls_script.log with errors, and answere is, that this is not a error.
first i have deabian server, i read that give problem with liquitsoup and more, i change the server to ubuntu 12.04 lts, the same problem, every night 0 - 7 one time great silence, in airtime the playlist play, but no musik on stream.
We have 7000 - 10000 songs in airtime at the moment, the files are 3 - 7 mb great, and the lang is 3 - 6 minutes circa..., sample 192 kbs cbr..., all the same source.
We have extra playlist for the night, 0 - 8 clock to see if errors occur, all files 1000 % ok.
On Day no problem with airtime, absolute peferkt, no problem with live DJ, no problem with Playlist, all perfekt and no problem.
Edit, smal files played, jingle 5 - 30 seconds are ok
I do not or cannot confirm that this is any bug relate to liquidsoap.
I took a 16hr. backup Mp3 and encode it in various bitrate between 96k-320k and it worked just fine.
My thoughts is that could run the song directly through liquidsoap and then output the logs and look at it.
One possibility is that is that there is a problem with either the mime type in apache or liquidsoap.
The Songs are not decoded and prepared in time for liquidsoap to handle them.
These are things you can confirm by increase the log level to 6 and get a Verbose log.
I explained the process here.

The problem above related to a track ending before its cue point.( can only be solved by looking at the track itself.
Yours (@Andy) ,you need to look through the forum for silence and see if it relates to anything else thread
As I said before its best you make your own thread with your own problem.
If you have solution for another person thread then post the comment in that person thread.
Your Problem may be unique,it may get lost by posting it in someone elses thread
