Hi Simon, I did a clean, default "Graphical Desktop" install of squeeze on i386 and then installed soundconverter, but wasn't able to reproduce this problem - the application starts without any issue.
t...@squeeze:~$ soundconverter
SoundConverter 1.4.4
using Gstreamer version: 0.10.30, Python binding version: 0.10.19
using gio
'lame' element not found, disabling MP3.
'faac' element not found, disabling AAC.

Can you provide some addition information about your environment? Perhaps a
different architecture or window manager? The exception message you encountered
is displayed for the following try block. I'm wondering if perhaps one of those
init() calls failed in your environment for some reason.
try:
import pygtk
pygtk.require("2.0")
import gtk
import gtk.glade
import gnome
import gnome.ui
gnome.ui.authentication_manager_init()
import gconf
import gobject
gobject.threads_init()
import gnomevfs
Regards,
tony
