gstreamer-properties, I believe, is specific to GNOME. I am running KDE4, which uses Phonon as its sound system. The backend I use is Xine, but I can switch it to gstreamer and it still works fine. I used the "Test" sound button and also streamed some internet music in Amarok to test gstreamer. However, pithos still performs exactly the way it did before this change.

Do you know how to manually make gstreamer or pithos use a different audio output device? I don't know why it is trying to open a bluetooth device.

I know almost nothing about neon and libsoup. To be clear, I am not using a proxy of any sort.

Here are some package versions, etc:
