Same problem here. Webcam worked ok with any software in Hardy Heron. Now it 
only works with Ekiga.
Here is the output from cheese:

$ cheese
(cheese:17778): GStreamer-WARNING **: pad source:src returned caps which are 
not a real subset of its template caps
(cheese:17778): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_value_set_fraction: assertion 
`denominator != 0' failed
(cheese:17778): GStreamer-WARNING **: pad source:src returned caps which are 
not a real subset of its template caps

Here is the ouput from gstreamer-properties , when clicking on Test
input:
