Kivy: kivy.lib.gstplayer._gstplayer.GstPlayerException: Unable to create a playbin
Not sure if we have a bug here. Just fishing.
Gstreamer 1.4.0-1
Kivy Master
Anything else helpful?

Install Gstreamer plugins to fix this error. Seems like I needed gst-plugings-bad for playing ogg files. All of this is on Linux, naturally.

I saw the same issue on MacOS El Capitan, and can confirm that brew install gst-plugins-bad solved the issue for me.

On OS X I removed gstreamer directory from kivy/lib and it worked.
path on my machine was:
usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/kivy/lib
type: rm -R gstreamer
then try running the app
