I would suggest you to e.g. have a look at the docs for the controller
and the examples in core (under tests/examples). The parameters for
gst_controller_new are not arbitrary strings. They are names of real
existing object properties on the object you pass as the first argument.
Further they have to be marked as controllable (check the gst-inspect
output for the element).

Thus for smptealpha you want to control "position".
