  GStreamer | gst-plugins-base | Ver: 0.10.15
           Summary: GStreamer sometimes silent when playing sound
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.15
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: andreasr at gnome.org
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: 2.19/2.20
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Playing sounds with GStreamer in gnome-games sometimes doesn't work. Sound is 
sometimes not played at all, and other times it is played correctly.

To reproduce:
- Start Aisleriot version 2.20.0 or later, (type 'sol' in command line).
- Enable sounds on the menu: "Control" -> "Enable sounds".
- Click on the deck to turn any new card. Each time a card is clicked, there
should be a short clicking sound being played by GStreamer. At random times,
the sound is silent.

This could be related to the changes in bug #466717, where GStreamer could not
play short .ogg sounds. This didn't happen in versions of GStreamer earlier
than 0.10.12.

Here are the versions I have installed:

OpenSuSE Linux 10.3  (64 bit x84)

GStreamer 0.10.15  (compiled from source)
gst-plugins-base 0.10.15
GNOME 2.20.0

gnome-games 2.21.2
