When we explicitely set the mute property to FALSE, connect to pulseaudio with
the PA_STREAM_START_UNMUTED flag set, otherwise pulseaudio will use its
previously used value (which might start the stream muted).

pulseaudiosink breaks visualisations in its current form, so let's
prevent it from being autoplugged for the time being.
The best we can hope to do in the 0.10 series is query the list of
available sinks and their formats, and expose these as the bin's sinkpad
caps. While this is not a comprehensive solution, it will make sure that
we're only trying to support compressed formats if we're certain that
one exists.
The long-term fix for this will be in the form of proper upstream
renegotiation support in the 0.11/1.0 series.

pa_stream_* functions return negative on error, despite the defines
for error codes being positive.
I only got to repro the error twice, so I'm not sure 100% sure this
fixes the issue (the negative var being uninitialized after returning
from pa_stream_get_latency).
This is causing us lots of headaches in 0.10 and needs to be done
differently and properly in 0.11. playbin or decodebin should
reconfigure themselves based on reconfigure events, for example.
Add private replacements for deprecated functions such as
g_mutex_new(), g_mutex_free(), g_cond_new() etc., mostly
to avoid the deprecation warnings. We'll change these
over to the new API once we depend on glib >= 2.32.

Some possible FIXMEs remaining in the audio parser getcaps functions.
PulseAudio 1.0 supports per-source-output volumes, and this exposes the
functionality via the GstStreamVolume interface.
When compiled against pre-1.0 PulseAudio, the interface is not
implemented, and the "volume" or "mute" properties are not available.
This bit of ugliness will go away when we can depend on PulseAudio 1.0
or greater.
