whereas with debian and its derivatives ( Ubuntu / Mint ), aac encoder from libav is used.

Refer https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gst-plugins-bad1.0/+bug/1299376

rem@debian:~$ gst-inspect-1.0 | grep -i aac
libav: avenc_aac: libav AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) encoder
libav: avdec_aac: libav AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) decoder

rem@debian:~$ gst-inspect-1.0 avenc_aac

  bitrate : Target Audio Bitrate

I guess from the above, libav's aac encoder supports only default configuration. Can't see a quality element property here.
