Bug#274924: /usr/bin/gnome-sound-recorder: usually freezes whole system

[Florian Schlichting]

Package: gnome-media
Version: 2.6.2-1
Followup-For: Bug #274924

my laptop usually freezes completely when I hit the record button - this
is the first time it hasn't, but instead turned into a zombie process,
leaving a warning message:

(gnome-sound-recorder:3165): GStreamer-WARNING **: pad osssrc0:src
returned caps that are not a real subset of its template caps

I've had a lot of crashes when I tried to get ALSA to work with my nm256
laptop sound, which is why I reverted to OSS. The sound itself does
work now, I can hear noise from the microphone in my headphones.
