Media Foundation multiple audio stream file decode error

I got an mp4 file which has 1 video and 2 audio streams. I want to decode the audio stream (after selecting one of them) using Media Foundation. Here is the code I have (I took it from MFAudio example of the MediaFoundation SDK samples).

Error checking is omitted for simplicity.

// Set up the source reader for the file.
MFCreateSourceResolver(&pSourceResolver);

pSourceResolver->CreateObjectFromURL(
    L"C:\\Users\\vahagng\\Desktop\\a.mp4",      // URL of the source.
    MF_RESOLUTION_MEDIASOURCE,  // Create a source object.
    NULL,                       // Optional property store.
    &ObjectType,                // Receives the created object type. 
    &uSource                    // Receives a pointer to the media source.
    );

uSource->QueryInterface(IID_PPV_ARGS(&mediaFileSource));

MFCreateSourceReaderFromMediaSource(mediaFileSource, NULL, &pSourceReader);

// Deselect all streams, we only want the first
pSourceReader->SetStreamSelection(MF_SOURCE_READER_ALL_STREAMS, false);
pSourceReader->SetStreamSelection(MF_SOURCE_READER_FIRST_AUDIO_STREAM, true);

MFCreateMediaType(&pAudioOutType);
pAudioOutType->SetGUID(MF_MT_MAJOR_TYPE, MFMediaType_Audio);
CHECK_HR(pAudioOutType->SetGUID(MF_MT_SUBTYPE, MFAudioFormat_Float);

pSourceReader->SetCurrentMediaType(MF_SOURCE_READER_FIRST_AUDIO_STREAM, NULL, pAudioOutType);

The code above fails on the last line (pSourceReader->SetCurrentMediaType()) with an error code 0xc00d36b4 : The data specified for the media type is invalid, inconsistent, or not supported by this object. for a media file that has 2 audio streams but works fine for 1 audio stream files.

The file I am testing has 2 AAC audio streams which is definitely supported by MediaFoundation.

Does MediaFoundation support decoding files of multiple audio streams?

Microsoft AAC Audio Decoder MFT does not seem to support this flavor of AAC track/encoding.

As the decoder is unable to process the media type, the stream is not decodable for Media Foudnation, resulting in:

• you are unable to apply decoder the way you do via SetCurrentMediaType
• TopoEdit is unable to render the file
• Windows Media Player can play the file falling back to DirectShow, provided that respective multiplexer, decoder is available
• Movies and TV player plays video only and remains silent.

The audio payload is most likely okay but the track descriptor is presumably inaccurate in some part, and decoder stumbles on the problem - nevertheless minor and not fatal - and reject the file.

Specifically, it does not look the the problem is caused by multiple audio tracks in the file. The problem is related to AAC tracks.
