When creating your bin you need to create a ghost pad targeting the
decodebin2 sink pad, so you can link the videotestsrc to the bin. Other
than that, you also need to connect to "new-decoded-pad" signal from
decodebin2 and link the pad to autovideosink in you callback.

I don't know what may be causing that. Check if that happens when you do
it the "normal" way too. But it's a little odd to use decodebin2 in that
pipeline. Why are you doing that?
