Public bug reported: Hey! I've got a sound issue I hope you guys could help me with. Basically the problem is with gstreamer and I can't hear any sound in some applications. Systeme sounds are ok (when I test it in the preferences menu) and applications like VLC works properly. Others though, doesn't work, probably because depending of Gstreamer.
I don't have sounds for Pidgin and when running through the terminal and trying to run the sound test in Tools>Preferences>Sound, i get following error message in the console: "(pidgin:6470): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_bin_add: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (element)' failed (pidgin:6470): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_link_pads: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (dest)' failed (pidgin:6470): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_link_pads: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (src)' failed " Doing the same for rhytmbox i get: "(rhythmbox:6740): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_set: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (rhythmbox:6740): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_bin_add: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (element)' failed (rhythmbox:6740): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_link_pads: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (dest)' failed (rhythmbox:6740): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_link_pads: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (src)' failed (rhythmbox:6740): RhythmDB-CRITICAL **: rhythmdb_entry_get_string: assertion `entry != NULL' failed " Now it seems that a lot of applications depends of gstreamer, like ubuntu-desktop, so I think its not a good idea to remove it directly but i'm not so experienced.. I'm using Ubuntu Gutsy btw.
