Same for me. I tried the gstreamer-alsa plugin from debian sarge, but 
gst-register hasn't shown anything useful and gst-inspect says 
alsasink/alsasrc is unknown. There must be some special "don't use 
plugins from the rest of the world" mechanism in libgstreamer-osso, 
because after I have overwritten libgstreamer-osso with libgstreamer 
from debian sarge, as also described here [1], the plugins will be 
recognized.
