Bug Description
When trying to run songbird, I get the following error:
././songbird-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/
I think this is related to some particular plugin that it is trying to load, since other python-gstreamer things seem to work.

I received the same error as well.
I have attached the output that I received when I started up songbird in the terminal.
However, I think the problem may be on songbird's side because songbird is trying to use the gstreamer plugins provided by songbird instead of using the ones already installed by ubuntu.
After doing some searching on google, I and many others have been able to fix the problem (Of songbird not starting) by deleting the gstreamer plugins that are provided by songbird.
To delete them, go to the directory where songbird is installed and: rm lib/libgst*
