You might try deleting any $HOME/.gstreamer-0.10 and
/root/.gstreamer-0.10 directories on your system.  This is where
GStreamer installs its registry cache information.  The error messages
you shared sound like GStreamer is having trouble processing its
registry files.  If you delete these directories, GStreamer should
rebuild its registry files the next time you run a GStreamer-based
program.  That might fix things.

If that doesn't work, I'd recommend checking the "gst-launch" man page.
Note in its example section it shows a number of sample pipelines you
can use for testing GStreamer.  Typically error messages from gst-launch
are more useful than error messages you get running a GUI client program
like sound-juicer.  Any error messages from gst-launch might help track
down the problem.

Also note the gst-std-options man page and that you can use the
--gst-debug-level option with gst-launch to get additional debug output.
This can be useful for getting more verbose messages about what might be
wrong.
