I don't remember, did you manage to make the gstreamer work on the
command line as a minimal test:

You can try by hand if gstreamer can play an oggvorbis file by running
the following command (replace X.ogg by an ogg file location), all on
one line:
gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=X.ogg ! oggdemux ! vorbisdec !
audioconvert ! audioresample ! alsasink

If this does not work, no need to go further, GCompris won't work
either. You may need to install additional package to get oggdemux codec
for gstreamer.
