Hi,

Thanks so much for your report.

I have confirmed this on an Oneiric Alpha3 installation, this is due to
the fact that gstreamer-plugins-good no longer contains the
libgstgconfelements.so library, that enables access to gnome-configured
default audio and video sources and sinks.

Apparently they are being phased out in favor of gsettings-compliant
elements, thus, for instance, in jobs/audio.txt the reference to
gconfaudiosink should be eventually changed to gsettingsaudiosink. See
for instance bug 822205 that affects the Totem media player.

For now a workaround is to install gstreamer0.10-gconf which reenables
the gconf elements, but by Oneiric release time the tests should use
whichever of gconf or gsettings sinks are in the default install.

Setting importance: High as it has "moderate impact on a large portion
of Ubuntu users" (potentially everyone trying to run Checkbox will run
into this error) - and failures due to problems in the tests themselves
are also to be considered high priority.

Thanks!

** Changed in: checkbox (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => High
