Using -vf fps results in no audio

[microchip]

Summary of the bug:
When using -vf fps filter there is no sound in the output. I tried with mplayer, vlc and xine and all behave the same. No sound at all. mplayer even reports that there is no audio track, even though MediaInfo says there is

The input in this case is 25 fps and I'm trying to convert it to 29.970

How to reproduce:

% /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i var/VideoSamples/var/jlo.mpg -c:v mpeg2video -b:v 3500k -c:a ac3 -b:a 192k -vf fps=fps=29.970 -y out.mpg

Did you checked that ffmpeg and all other players can play audio from input mpg file?
Did you checked if same happens without fps filter?

You do not need to answer above questions if you provide way to download that file.
