Stefan, I did install the plugins with the same plugin as GStreamer (both had the default, /usr/local). Where do I set GST_PLUGIN_PATH to be exported globally? /etc/profile?

An alternative for 3rd party plugins is $HOME/.gstreamer-0.10/plugins/. Otherwise make sure the GST_PLUGIN_PATH is exported globaly so that it is available for the X-session.
