If the changes get backported to 10.04, I can test, but my environment
can't be upgraded right now.  As for the issue itself, it seems to be
some kind of pervasive backwards compatibility issue with gstreamer and
older versions of PulseAudio.  No media player I've tried that uses
gstreamer has been able to play successfully (also tried Banshee, among
others).

I've switched to Exaile since it provides a configuration option to
choose where its output goes (e.g., ALSA, PulseAudio, etc).  If I direct
it through PulseAudio, I get the same sort of gstreamer error.  If I
direct it through ALSA, PulseAudio will pick it up from there and
everything works fine.
