[SOLVED] listen fails with "No audio sink found for Gstreamer"

I'm having a problem with listen. When I run it from the XFCE menu nothing happens, and when I run it from a terminal I get:

bash-3.2# listen
/usr/lib/listen/utils.py:36: GtkWarning: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "clearlooks",
  TIP = gtk.Tooltips()

(listen.py:2599): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
No dbus support
No Hal support
No musicbrainz support (musicbrainz2 missing)
No iPod support
No Audio cd support (musicbrainz2 missing)
/usr/lib/listen/widget/preference.py:23: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
  import md5
No mmkeys support
No audio sink found for Gstreamer

I have installed Audacious as well, which plays fine, and I get sound from mplayer too, though I don't think either of those use gstreamer. I have the following parts of gstreamer installed:

bash-3.2# pacman -Qs gstreamer
local/gstreamer0.10 0.10.21-2
    GStreamer Multimedia Framework
local/gstreamer0.10-bad 0.10.9-1
    GStreamer Multimedia Framework Bad Plugin libraries (gst-plugins-bad)
local/gstreamer0.10-base 0.10.21-1
    GStreamer Multimedia Framework Base plugin libraries
local/gstreamer0.10-base-plugins 0.10.21-1 (gstreamer0.10-plugins)
    GStreamer Multimedia Framework Base Plugins (gst-plugins-base)
local/gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg 0.10.6-1 (gstreamer0.10-plugins)
    Gstreamer FFMpeg Plugin
local/gstreamer0.10-python 0.10.13-2
    Python bindings for GStreamer 0.10
local/gstreamer0.10-ugly 0.10.10-1
    GStreamer Multimedia Framework Ugly plugin libraries
local/gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins 0.10.10-1 (gstreamer0.10-plugins)
    GStreamer Multimedia Framework Ugly Plugins (gst-plugins-ugly)

I've googled, searched the forum and the wiki and come up dry. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

===== UPDATE =====

Never mind - fixed it myself with:

pacman -S gstreamer0.10-plugins
