Bug Description
When I press Ctrl+Shift+Alt+R, screencast indicator appears in the indicator menu but disappears in about 2 seconds. No file is even created under the Videos folder.
journalctl shows:
Mar 02 09:10:29 Development dbus-daemon[2962]: [session uid=1000 pid=2962] Activating service name='org.
Mar 02 09:10:29 Development dbus-daemon[2962]: [session uid=1000 pid=2962] Successfully activated service 'org.gnome.

Mar 02 09:10:32 Development gjs[5825]: JS LOG: Failed to create pipeline: Gst.ParseError: no element "pipewiresrc"
The issue is the Gst.ParseError.
Before upgrading to jammy (22.04), it used to work fine. Also, when testing under qemu/KVM it works properly. It just doesn't work when running directly on the PC.
What other logs can I provide?

I'm not sure we should investigate this at all until at least 42 is released.
