Additional info:

went through a few steps with the team at Gnome and here's what we found:
-gstreamer is the RH version of gstreamer; from the Freshrpms repository I have also added gstreamer-plugins-extra-audio, extra-video, and tools-dvd;
-oggs can play in ogg123, xine, mplayer, xmms, and amaroK
-running st-launch-ext-0.8
01_Anberlin_Blueprints_For_The_Black_Market_Readyfuels.ogg
No configuration file /home/emesa/.gst found.  You might want to create one.
This is not an error, just a friendly reminder... Check the man page.

Running command-line
gst-launch-0.8 filesrc
location="01_Anberlin_Blueprints_For_The_Black_Market_Readyfuels.ogg" !
oggdemux ! vorbisdec ! audioconvert ! osssink

RUNNING pipeline ...
makes the song play - so gstreamer works
-I CAN listen to streaming media in rhythmbox
-finally, there is ONE mp3 that plays.  I tried playing other mp3s, but they don't work.  I tried other mp3s from the same folder - no dice.  I tried using the file command to see if there was a difference, but no - there wasn't.
-I have a lot of other programs that depend on the other gstreamer plugins, so I'd like to fix this w/o disturbing those, if possible.
