[Bug 42247] Re: gstreamer0.10 refuses to play certain valid MP3s (not all, but some)

[Sebastian Dröge]

No... it's caused by your gstreamer properties most probably.
please run gstreamer-properties and select "ALSA" as default audio output. this should work around your problem for now

it seems like you have esd as default but the esd daemon isn't running. upstream is currently trying to fix this by falling back to something else if esd doesn't work

** Changed in: gst-plugins-ugly0.10 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Needs Info => Confirmed
