> The multiprocess.Process interface is effectively calling fork.

Is the fork() happening before you call *any* GLib or GStreamer function? Also
in that context the library constructors of GLib might be problematic (after
they're called you also can't safely fork() anymore).

fork() without replacing the whole process image (aka execv() and friends) is
not really supported by GLib and is also in general is not supported for
multi-threaded applications after more threads than the main one exist.
