This only happened to me on openSUSE 10.2 when the gstreamer libraries
were placed in a location that banshee couldn't see. If you're using
the stock gnome code (2.16) then this will probably be in
/opt/gnome/lib/gstreamer, but if like me you're on the edge with 2.18,
then you need to physically move the gstreamer stuff from that folder
to /usr/lib/gstreamer.
If you want to leave things where they are, then you probably want to
look at adding the location of gstreamer library folder to a
gstreamer.conf file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/
You can create this file manually.
Hope it helps.
