Pidgin had been working fine for me, but suddenly stopped working in the last couple of days. I could log on to a jabber server without problem, but logging on to IRC (Freenode) would cause the window to hang as soon as I logged in.
After running pidgin on the command line, I found the same gstreamer error:
tryon@mash:~$ pidgin -d | tee pidgin-debug.log
Got me:
(12:34:17) gstreamer: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
Disabling sounds (Preferences -> Sounds -> Mute Sounds) fixed the problem for me.
Here's what I'm running:
Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64 (no restricted drivers; fully up to date)
Pidgin 2.5.2 (1:2.5.2-0ubuntu1.1)
Dell XPS m1530 laptop
I'd be happy to upgrade to Jaunty and do some testing to help squash this bug.
