Steps to reproduce the issue:
* In clementine's preferences under "Playback - Audio output" select some
removable device.
* Quit clementine.
* Unplug/disconnect/remove the output device.
* Start clementine and try to play a file.
Then clementine is unable to play anything and only reports an internal error
and prints the GstEnginePipeline errors. After setting the output device to an
existing device everything works again. It would be really helpful if clementine
would report a sensible error message like "output device does not exist"
instead of an "internal stream error". Then one would be able to act on it.
Retitled the bug accordingly.

Diffing the new and old config files revealed the above issue.

It's a plain XFCE. But I suppose the issue is unrleated to the DE.
