I find it hard to believe that it is in fact different :)

If you create a playbin2 element, don't use gst_parse_launch(), use
gst_element_factory_make("playbin2", NULL).

If you're using gst_parse_launch() because it's more convenient to set
properties that way, use gst_util_set_object_arg() instead to set them.
