------- Comment #6 from Stefan Kost (gstreamer, gtkdoc dev)  2009-03-16 20:12 UTC -------
But the collect function in turn is stuck in GST_COLLECT_PADS_WAIT. The
application is definitely locked - no more sound. If I just disable the lock in
gst_adder_src_event()/GST_EVENT_SEEK/GST_OBJECT_LOCK (adder->collect);
it does not lock up, but does not behave correctly either.

I don't see why we have to wait for gst_collect_pads_chain() to finish. It does
not (and it cannot) access adder->segment_pending and adder->segment_position
and that is what we modity in the event function.
