TIMIT Dataset not working with GPU

## Describe the bug
I am working trying to use the TIMIT dataset in order to fine-tune Wav2Vec2 model and I am unable to load the "audio" column from the dataset when working with a GPU. 

I am working on Amazon Sagemaker Studio, on the Python 3 (PyTorch 1.8 Python 3.6 GPU Optimized) environment, with a single ml.g4dn.xlarge instance (corresponds to a Tesla T4 GPU). 

I don't know if the issue is GPU related or Python environment related because everything works when I work off of the CPU Optimized environment with a non-GPU instance. My code also works on Google Colab with a GPU instance. 

This issue is blocking because I cannot get the 'audio' column in any way due to this error, which means that I can't pass it to any functions. I later use the dataset.map function and that is where I originally noticed this error. 

## Steps to reproduce the bug
```python
from datasets import load_dataset

timit_train = load_dataset('timit_asr', split='train')
print(timit_train['audio'])
```

## Expected results
Expected to see inside the 'audio' column, which contains an 'array' nested field with the array data I actually need.

## Actual results

Traceback
```
