I use an up-to-date Breezy Badger (including today's rhythbox upgrade).

ii  rhythmbox  0.9.1-1ubuntu3~breezy1

The default sink is esd, the default source is OSS (I guess these are the
default settings).

I tried playing a file (MP3) with gst-launch-0.8 playbin uri="file://...." and
the result is even weirder : the sound doesn't just stutters... How to say that.
Well, using rhythmbox, the sound often pauses, maybe two or three times per
second, when the system is a little loaded, when it pauses, it's just silence
for a very, very short time. Using playbin, it still stutters, but it seems that
instead of the silence, it plays another part of the sound, maybe one second
ahead or behind, thus giving the impression of always jumping from here to
there, several times per second, and even withtout any system load. Weird :)

My soundcard is a SoundBlaster Live 24, seen by lspci as :
