How to reproduce this bug:

- Ensure that gstreamer1.0-alsa is NOT installed. It's not installed by default on Ubuntu flavours such as kubuntu or xubuntu. If you're running vanilla Ubuntu, you can sudo apt-get remove gstreamer1.0-alsa.

- Run this command:
PATH=$PATH:/usr/share/checkbox/scripts alsa_record_playback
- Expected result:
  Sound is recorded from the microphone for a few seconds, then played back through the speakers/headphones.

Actual result:
$ PATH=$PATH:/usr/share/checkbox/scripts alsa_record_playback
