rhythmbox -d log

version: 2.90.1.git20110829 (archlinux)
steps to reproduce:
- open rhythmbox
- plug in mp3 player (in mass storage mode with .is_audio_player file)
- right click on mp3 player in rhythmbox and click on properties

traces:
rhythmbox -d gives a "sys:1: Warning: g_value_set_object: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_OBJECT (value)' failed" message (see log)

I also tried using gdb and here's the last lines of log:
sys:1: Warning: g_value_set_object: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_OBJECT (value)' failed

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007ffff063aec0 in gst_encoding_target_get_profiles () from /usr/lib/libgstpbutils-0.10.so.0

I had the intuition that it may be an error in the .is_audio_player file and tried to edit it to remove some of the 'output_formats' values with no success. current values are:
audio/ogg,audio/wav,audio/flac,audio/mp3

I should add that the media player is a Cowon S9, not sure if relevant

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
Without a stack trace from the crash it's very hard to determine what caused it.
Can you get us a stack trace? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!

I added a trace with rhythmbox and gstreamer0.10-base/base-plugins in debug mode according to archlinux guidelines. Please tell me if you need more.
