Internal GStreamer error: state change failed [SOLVED]

When I try to play something in rhythmbox I get:

Internal GStreamer error: state change failed

I know that this has been already posted here, but the topic is changed to [solved] and their solutions dont work with me.

If I run rhythmbox in terminal and select the song I see:

(rhythmbox:7055): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: 
Trying to dispose element fakesink, but it is not in the NULL state.
You need to explicitly set elements to the NULL state before
dropping the final reference, to allow them to clean up.


(rhythmbox:7055): RhythmDB-CRITICAL **: rhythmdb_entry_get_string: assertion `entry != NULL' failed

I can use other apps to play audio, but in flash I dont have sound too.

Any idea? (I have alsa configured and the gstreamer necessary plugins)

EDIT: Well, I started doing a deepest search and found this: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/8948 so I downgraded to core kernel (I was using testing kernel) and it is ok now.
EDIT2: Solved with the new kernel package!
