Pcm sparse impulses: last sample bound · case 01

Final in-range impulse is excluded.

ROOT CAUSE

Final in-range impulse is excluded.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use the stated conversion contract at last sample bound.

Unsuccessful approach: Excluding position zero loses the first audible sample.

Case contract

Reconstruct a sparse PCM packet into a fixed sample span using explicit silence, ignore out-of-range events and apply duplicate positions in arrival order.

Why this case matters

Offline PCM interchange uses these exact bounded packet and sample representation decisions.

Verification & scope

Stipulated finite model; no claim of hardware timing or full file-format conformance. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
