Subject: gnome-media: running gst-register to fix broken volume control
Package: gnome-media
Version: 2.8.0-0.2
Severity: important

There are numerous bugs on gnome-media reporting problems with the
volume and mixer controls, especially after updating.

I recently had the identical problem as reported in bugs #303568 and
#276681, and finally resolved it by removing my ~/.gstreamer-0.?
directories and rebuilding them by running gst-register-0.6 and
gst-register-0.8 (which are in the libgstreamer0.? packages). After
this, the volume and mixer controls worked correctly.

Interestingly, only users who already had accounts had this
problem. When new users are added, their gstreamer registries are
generated correctly, so the problem is with old gstreamer registries
not getting updated, and of course, there's nothing that notifies you
that you need to do this.

 (I think that running "gst-register-0.8" isn't needed.)

 I'm closing your report (#307156), and waiting for confirmation from
 the other submitters.
