Audio: `encode_example` fails with IndexError

## Describe the bug
Loading the dataset [earnings-22](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sanchit-gandhi/earnings22_split) from the Hub yields an Index Error. I created this dataset locally and then pushed to hub at the specified URL. Thus, I expect the dataset should work out-of-the-box! Indeed, the dataset viewer functions correctly, and there were no issues when I had the dataset locally.

Don't think it's a sound file bug as the version matches what worked previously.

Update: the bug appeared for me on a GPU, mysteriously on a TPU I can't repro and it downloads correctly...

## Steps to reproduce the bug
```python
from datasets import load_dataset

earnings22 = load_dataset("sanchit-gandhi/earnings22_split")
```

## Expected results
```
>>>  earnings22
DatasetDict({
    validation: Dataset({
        features: ['source_id', 'audio', 'segment_id', 'sentence', 'start_ts', 'end_ts', 'id'],
        num_rows: 2650
    })
    train: Dataset({
        features: ['source_id', 'audio', 'segment_id', 'sentence', 'start_ts', 'end_ts', 'id'],
        num_rows: 52006
    })
    test: Dataset({
        features: ['source_id', 'audio', 'segment_id', 'sentence', 'start_ts', 'end_ts', 'id'],
        num_rows: 2735
    })
})
```

## Actual results
```
