Yes, "gstreamer0.10-plugins-good" and "gstreamer0.10-plugins-base" where the
right packages - each disto names things according to their policies.

Also this backtrace is good. Now whats not so good is that according to the
trace it crashed here:
static gboolean
gst_alsasink_close (GstAudioSink * asink)
{
  GstAlsaSink *alsa = GST_ALSA_SINK (asink);

  if (alsa->handle) {
    snd_pcm_close (alsa->handle);                  // <-- this line
    alsa->handle = NULL;
  }
  gst_caps_replace (&alsa->cached_caps, NULL);

  return TRUE;
}

which would be an alsa bug (?). Some questions to narrow it down:
1) can you play music with other applications?
2) what is the output from: cat /proc/asound/cards
3) does this work or crash too ? it should beeeeep (Ctrl-C to abort).
gst-launch is part of gstreamer0.10-tools package on ubuntu.
   gst-launch-0.10 audiotestsrc ! alsasink
