Title:
  deadlock: GStreamer-WARNING **: wrong STREAM_LOCK count 0

Status in The GStreamer Multimedia Framework:
  Unknown
Status in “gstreamer0.10” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Banshee and Totem both suffer from a very annoying bug where they will
  lock up when trying to interact with them while media is playing. It's
  hard to describe, but here are the main points:

  * When the application locks up, "GStreamer-WARNING **: wrong STREAM_LOCK 
count 0" is output.
  * I have tested this with quite a diverse MP3 library.
  * This happens **most frequently** using gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3.
  * This happens less frequently when using lame/mad from 
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly.
  * I am unable to reproduce this issue with OGG/Vorbis audio.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Install gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3, as it is easiest to trigger the bug 
(works with gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly as well, just not as often).
  2. Open any MP3 in Totem from the terminal.
  3. Seek madly for 5-10 seconds or until it freezes. (Sometimes the freeze is 
instantaneous, sometimes it takes a few seconds of trying.)
  4. Observe the GStreamer warning message and deadlock.

  This has been *very* difficult to pin down, as it happens seemingly at
  random. I'm attaching a backtrace of Totem's state during the freeze.
  Some points of note:

  * The "GStreamer-CRITICAL" message is unrelated to the freezing from what I 
can tell, as it doesn't show up during other traces I've done.
  * ^C is where it froze.
  * #10 is libgstflump3dec.so -- could not find debugging symbols for this, but 
as it happens with the other MP3 decoders as well, I don't think the problem 
lies in the MP3 plugins themselves.

  Something I've noticed while testing this: it appears to freeze more often 
around when threads are created/destroyed.
  Let me know if there's any more information I can provide.
