Well, you probably shouldn't be posting GStreamer debug log lines onto
any message busses, be it a GstBus or D-Bus.

When you pause the pipeline, only the sinks stop rendering data (if
you're playing back a local file). The rest of the pipeline will
continue to process data until the queues fill up (and block upstream).
