I am running karmic and am also experiencing this bug - uninstalling frei0r-plugins resolves it. I then built frei0r-plugins from git and installed it using checkinstall. Now, after running rhythmbox I receive the following error:
$ rhythmbox
(rhythmbox:18793): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_param_spec_internal: assertion `(name[0] >= 'A' && name[0] <= 'Z') || (name[0] >= 'a' && name[0] <= 'z')' failed

ERROR: Caught a segmentation fault while loading plugin file:
/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstfrei0r.so

Please either:
- remove it and restart.
- run with --gst-disable-segtrap and debug.
Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal
Run 'rhythmbox --help' to see a full list of available command line options.

It seems that the offending file is /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstfrei0r.so . Is it possible to replace this object file with an older version? Is it necessary for openshot to function?
