Ok so if gstreamers Alsa support is a bit funky at the moment, then what
about jack? Is it a gstreamer core problem that it cant work with
jacksink, or is it something to do with the gentoo gstreamer ebuild?

If its gentoo then we can fix the ebuild somehow but if not then I guess
we cross our fingers and wait for the next version.
