Against my local gstreamer- and gst-plugin-*-1.7.1 I updated libvpx to 1.5.0
and pulseaudio to 8.0 and gst-plugins-good-1.7.1 built with no issues. When I
compiled gst-plugins-good-1.6.3 against libvpx-1.5.0 and pulseaudio-8.0 I got
the same failure as before (which I forgot to write down), so I'm thinking
this will mostly resolve itself when the gstreamer-1.8 release comes out.

As a side note, I think the interaction between debian's pulseaudio and
guix's pulseaudio where I have no sound from my speakers might be solved with
updating guix's pulseaudio to 8.0. Now to leave sound playing for a while and
see if that's the case.
