Maybe make a GST_DEBUG=*:6 log and grep for not-linked to see where the
problem is?

in the PluggableBin's init function, perhaps try gst_bin_add()ing the
null filter elements before you create the ghost pads. I'm not sure if
the target pad will be set right if it's not yet inside the bin
hierarchy.
