How did you install the rpms? Did you use apt? Here's what I would do. download apt-get from freshrpms. Use this address.

Download the RPM, not the src.rpm. Install. Go to your favorite commandline. Change to root, or use sudo...I don't know how you're configured, and issue the command.
apt-get update
Then, once that completes,
apt-get install synaptic
This will install synaptic on your computer and give you access to sites like Dag's. I don't think these guys get enough thanks, so here's a thnks. THANKS
Anywho, once you've got Synaptic installed, I would search for gstreamer and reinstall everything you've got and see if you're missing anything. The important one you need is called
gstreamer-plugins-extra-audio
