 This sounds like you're missing codec_data for your decoder.  Can you check 
on your client which caps are set on the elements?  You typically have a 
config string on rtph264depay's sink pad and a codec-data buffer on its src 
pad.

 If your rtsp server is not sending out the codec data (e.g. because you start 
in the middle of a stream), then you have a problem :-)
