This is still a problem in Lubuntu 16.04. gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio is
installed by default (presumably following Ubuntu), gstreamer1.0-alsa is
not.

'sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-alsa' fixes the problem. Gstreamer apps
such as banshee now output audio instead of silence.

I will file a bug against lubuntu-desktop and reference this bug.

** Also affects: gstreamer1.0 (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Without pulseaudio, banshee and rhythmbox report "jack server is not running 
or cannot be started" and do not play
+ Lubuntu: banshee, rhythmbox, etc cannot play audio without pulseaudio or 
gstreamer1.0-alsa
