Hi,

It seems worth noting that this same error will come up in Parole on a 'vanilla' install of Xubuntu 14.04 LTS (fresh from GA and updated on 2014.04.29).

There doesn't actually seem to be a package available called 'gst-plugins-base' as recommended in the previous comment. Packages named gstreamer1.0-plugins-base and gstreamer0.10-plugins-base do exist. (Note I am not using 'multiverse'; perhaps the referenced package is in there).

I eventually tracked down the problem to the package 'gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio' not being installed.

After installing that, the error is no longer displayed when trying to play an audio file (mp3 via fluendo) in Parole.

Definitely not a Parole bug, but I figure someone else may end up here looking for a solution so it was worth addding a comment.
