Bug#445887: Regression: seems to need restart to notice change of sound sink

Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.11.1-1+b1
Severity: normal

If I change the sound sink for gstreamer, I have to restart rhythmbox
before this is noticed. I change the sink using:

gconftool -t string -s /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/musicaudiosink $sink

(I do this so I can assign the action to a hotkey.)

In 0.10.x, Rhythmbox noticed the change next time it started playing a
track. Rhythmbox 0.11.1 doesn't seem to notice unless I restart it.
