If you had two non-gstreamer devices, then you would be able to test 
changing from one to the other -- and if that were working, then we 
could put the blame squarely on my gstreamer code. But since you have 
only one, you can't do any test without my gstreamer code being 
involved... so we can't be sure whether it's guilty or not.
