Description James Gregory 2008-03-05 10:32:37 UTC 
Pidgin crashed (while I was receiving messages from users) with the following debug output:

(13:14:01) gstreamer: Internal GStreamer error: state change failed.  Please file a bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer.

(pidgin:4043): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: 
Trying to dispose element play, but it is not in the NULL state.
You need to explicitly set elements to the NULL state before
dropping the final reference, to allow them to clean up.
