Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
totem-3.6.0-1.fc18.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1.$ totem file.mp3
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
File does not play and error dialog ask to search for plugin appears.

The gstreamer framework does play mp3 files per the following cmd:

Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...

New clock: GstPulseSinkClock

The following errors are reported by totem:

I am using the XFCE desktop and have not tried gnome3.

There isn't "a" GStreamer framework, there's 2 versions, 0.10, and 1.0. They're incompatible. You just ran the version for GStreamer 0.10 which probably has a working MP3 plugin.

Trying "gst-launch-1.0 playbin2  ..."

Finally, I don't think that Fluendo has released any 1.0 version of their MP3 plugin, though I could be wrong.
