I don't use gnome, so this may be of no use at all, but assuming that what I 
do in kde must have an equivalence in gnome, here are my comments.

Some applications use xine-backend and some use gstreamer-backend.  See if you 
can find the configuration tool to switch them, then experiment.  Similarly, 
when I look at the multimedia page in systemsettings I see a list of possible 
outputs for each type of input.  Experiment with those, if you can find them.  
I found it well worth moving some around, making sure that either PA or an 
output seen to work (test button) is at the top of the list.

Vague, but HTH
