           Summary: alsasink element can be used only one time per program
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: zazubrik at mail.ru

     GNOME version: 2.13/2.14
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Please describe the problem:
I can run pipeline with alsasink only one time. After unref-ing the pipeline,
and creating new one with alsasink the new pipeline won't go into PLAYING
state. ringbuffer hangs in opening device.

On the other hand, works fine with OSSsink or previous version
(gst-plugins-base 0.10.11)

Steps to reproduce:
Testcase: (http://timon.stabilis.ru/~timon/alstest.c)
#include <gst/gst.h>

#define GST_CREATE_EL(el, kind, name) do {                              \
        el = gst_element_factory_make(kind, name);                      \
        g_assert(el);                                                          
                \
        g_print("Created %s of kind %s with name %s, %p\n",     \
                #el, kind, name, el);                                          
        \
        if (el != pipe)                                                        
                \
                gst_bin_add(GST_BIN(pipe), el);                                
\
} while (0)
#define SINK "alsa"

GMainLoop *loop;
GstElement *pipe, *src, *conv, *res, *sink;
int timer = 0;

void
CreatePipeline()
{
        GST_CREATE_EL(pipe, "pipeline", "pipeline");
        GST_CREATE_EL(src, "audiotestsrc", "src");
        GST_CREATE_EL(conv, "audioconvert", "converter");
        GST_CREATE_EL(res, "audioresample", "resampler");
        GST_CREATE_EL(sink, SINK"sink", sink);
        gst_element_link_many(src, conv, res, sink, NULL);
}

gboolean
IdleTimer(gpointer data)
{
        timer ++;
        g_print("Timer: %d\n", timer);
        if ((timer % 10) == 0) {
                gst_element_set_state(pipe, GST_STATE_NULL);
                g_main_loop_quit(loop);
        }
        return TRUE;
}

int
main(int ac, char **av)
{
        gst_init(&ac, &av);
        loop = g_main_loop_new(NULL, FALSE);
        g_timeout_add(100, IdleTimer, NULL);

        CreatePipeline();
        gst_element_set_state(pipe, GST_STATE_PLAYING);
        g_main_loop_run(loop);
        g_object_unref(pipe);

        g_print("done\n");

        CreatePipeline();
        gst_element_set_state(pipe, GST_STATE_PLAYING);
        g_main_loop_run(loop);
        g_object_unref(pipe);

        return (0);
}


Actual results:
First time the pipeline runs well.
Second time the pipeline doesn't change to PLAYING state, with the last
message:
0:00:02.348000000 10497 0x502010 DEBUG           ringbuffer
gstringbuffer.c:443:gst_ring_buffer_open_device:<audiosinkringbuffer1> opening
device.
Have to kill program using ^C.

Expected results:
Hear sample tone, then gap, then sample tone again.

Does this happen every time?
YES.
