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.

So basically I was wondering if I am suppost to do something special to
make gstreamer work with AlSA or JACK.. obviousely there must be some
sort of gotcha somewhere that Im not aware of.
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15825 :
"Side note: gstreamer's alsa support is not fully done yet. To prevent
a crash
once you try and play something, use gconf-editor or similar to set the
/system/gstreamer/defaults/audiosink parameter to "osssink" instead of
"alsasink" and use the OSS compatibility libraries. This tidbit also
comes from
Colin, and given the fact I use alsa, it solves a crashing issue I was
having
with rhythmbox for a while."
