Public bug reported:

When running Rhythmbox, no sound is produced when a music file is
"played".

I get a thump sound from the OS and a pop-up message saying " Couldn't
start playback - Failed to link GStreamer pipeline; check your
installation"

I have tried purging and re-installing but the same problem continues.

When I start Rhythmbox from the terminal, I get this message:

(rhythmbox:21017): Gtk-WARNING **: Duplicate child name in GtkStack: Add
to Playlist

I had this problem once before and I believe an update fixed it.

I am running Ubuntu Mate 16.04ppc on a Powerbook G4.
This is the current latest version of Rhythmbox on this platform.
Gtk-Message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.
