Hi,
currently audioconvert doesn't set any channel positions when, for example,
converting two channel audio into 5 channels. This causes
gst_audio_get_channel_positions() if called from an element after audioconvert
to print a g_warning().

audioconvert should probably set the default channel positions if none are
specified in the caps it converts to.

Example pipeline would be:
gst-launch-0.10 audiotestsrc ! audioconvert ! "audio/x-raw-int,channels=5" !
fakesink

Might also be that this is just a bug in the pipeline and the capsfilter should
instead contain channel positions ;)
