Public bug reported:
On upgrading to hardy, I ran multimedia systems selector (gstreamer-
properties) to make use of pulseaudio. I changed audio default output
from ALSA to PulseAudio sound server
However, I found that playing music in rhythmbox or totem prevented
further sounds from playing, and any sound playing prevented rhythmbox
or totem from playing. On further inspection, these applications were
still using alsa and not pulseaudio.
I checked in gconf and while in /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/ the
key named audiosink had been changed to pulsesink, a key named
musicaudiosink was left on alsasink. On changing this to pulsesink the
problem was fixed.
gstreamer-properties should be fixed to change both keys, before the
release of hardy when many existing users who upgrade and read about
pulseaudio in the release notes will try pulseaudio to find it
dysfunctional.
