Heya!

Please merge this patch for the pulse plugin for Gst:

http://0pointer.de/public/gst-pulse-update.patch

It changes quite a few things:

* Hook pulsesink's volume property up with the stream volume -- not the sink
volume in PA. 
* Read the device description directly from the sink instead of going via the
mixer.
* Properly implement _reset() methods for both sink and source to avoid
deadlocks when shutting down a pipeline.
* Replace all simple pa_threaded_mainloop_wait() by proper loops to guarantee
that we wait for the right event in case multiple events are fired. While this
is not strictly necessary in many cases it certainly is more correct and makes
me sleep better at night.
* Replace CHECK_DEAD_GOTO macros with proper functions
* Extend the number of supported channels to 32 since that is the actual limit
in PA.
* Get rid of _dispose() methods since we don't need them.
* Increase the volume property upper limit of the sink to 1000.
* Reset function pointers after we disconnect a stream/context. Better fix for
bug 556986.
* Reset the state of the element properly if open/prepare fails
* Cork the PA stream when the pipeline is paused. This allows the PA daemon to
close audio device on pause and thus save a bit of power.
* Set PA stream properties based on GST tags such as GST_TAG_TITLE,
GST_TAG_ARTIST, and so on.


The patch is against 0.10.11. The four patches that have been commited to CVS
after that release should either be reversed anyway (see bug 567748) or are
incorporated in this patch.
