this is also a known problem:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=555631.

But if I would add this patch, I don't know what will happen with the other 
components of the complex gstreamer-framework. And it seems to bee only a 
banshee related issue. And I won't provide  "unstable" subversion based 
gstreamer packages because it is too much additional work.

So the problem should be (hopefully) solved in the next gstreamer release.
