This point I can rule out.

Except for VP8 all offered codes for decoding are activated
Hardware encoding incl. both intel low power encoders are also activated.

Yes, audio transcoding is happening. See example below.
Is my understanding incorrect, that audio de- and encoding compared to video de- and encoding would only take a fraction of cpu time? Meaning, it shouldn't make a big difference and wouldn't explain the results of my tests above?
