Never mind, the bug is referenced in lubuntu-meta, I will try to get
some attention on it via forums, etc. This is pretty nasty for anyone
who wants to use GStreamer apps in Lubuntu.

Bug description:
  Lubuntu Raring (13.04).
  The Lubuntu standard installation comes without jack, and without pulse, just plain alsa. Gstreamer applications (rhythmbox, banshee) used to work fine after installing "ubuntu-restricted-extras", which pulls in the usual gstreamer plugins.
  On my system, gstreamer applications stopped working. They report:
  > Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
  > Cannot connect to server request channel
  > jack server is not running or cannot be started
  Since there is no jack on this system, never was, and is not intended to be there, I cannot understand this message. The applications do not produce sound.

  This looks like gstreamer tries to start up jackd, regardless whether
  it is installed or not.
