Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.8.4-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
I tried gstreamer-properties to set the output to both ESD and OSS.
Both of which generate good test tones in the gstreamer-properties app.
Restarting Rhythmbox after changing the gstreamer sink does not seem to
have any effect.
This just happened when I upgraded to the this version of rhythmbox.

Please look on the NEWS file of rhythmbox
(/usr/share/doc/rhythmbox/NEWS.Debian.gz)
gstreamer-properties for gnome-media 2.4 change gstreamer 0.6
properties, rhythmbox is using gstreamer 0.8. gnome-media 2.6 will be
uploaded in unstable soon.
BTW this is not a rhythmbox bug, I'm closing it.
Cheers,
Sebastien Bacher
