Note, I'm using GStreamer revision 6379b7a07b2212db39d26609635fb5b3b904c7d2 (on the 1.4 branch) but this issue has occurred for a long time.
(In reply to comment #1) > Created attachment 256906 [details] > Backtrace Looking at this trace it seems you don't have the autoaudiosink gst element. Can you check your gst-plugins-good jhbuild installation? Within the JHBuild shell this should show a description of the element: gst-inspect-1.0 autoaudiosink
Indeed, thanks Philippe: $ gst-inspect-1.0 autoaudiosink No such element or plugin 'autoaudiosink' Looks like the problem is that we do not depend on gst-plugins-good in GNOME jhbuild, only on gst-plugins-base. Also, our CMake build system clearly does not require it. Is gst-plugins-good mandatory, then? Should we require it at build time, or allow building without it and handle the failure better runtime?

I don't think we should require it in CMake, -good doesn't provide any library, only plugins. But we should provide better runtime support indeed, handle failures better, like you suggest :)
