           Summary: Pad problem with 2.1 sound

          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All

Please describe the problem:
I've setup a pcm device through .asoundrc to send audio to my notebook subwoofer
but when I try to play some mp3 using rhythmbox i get a messagebox which
complains that there have been an "Internal GStreamer error: pad problem.  File
a bug."

Steps to reproduce:
1. Using a Intel ICH4 AC97 sound card setup a .alsarc like this in your homedir:

 pcm.!default {
        type plug
        slave.pcm "stereo21"
}

pcm.stereo21 {
        type route
        slave.pcm "surround51"
        slave.channels 6
        ttable.0.0 1
        ttable.1.1 1
        ttable.0.5 0.5
        ttable.1.5 0.5
}

2. Start rhythmbox (or any GStreamer app, I think) and play an audio file.



Actual results:
I get a messagebox which reports me that an "Internal GStreamer error: pad
problem" has occurred.

Expected results:
The application should play music/videos using 2.1 channels.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
Alsaplayer and Totem/Xine are working well with that .asoundrc. XMMS and Beep
Media Player work but they play with some glitches. Aplay is good to. RealPlayer
10 wrapped with aoss plays with glitches.

I'm using ALSA libs v1.0.8 and GStreamer 0.8.8 on Debian Unstable. My audio card
is an Intel ICH4 with CMI9739 codec.
