Pocketsphinx+Gst Race Condition? PS cant listen & record audio in Python script?

Hi guys,

I've been working on a Home Automation project in my apt since around July.Currently I'm trying to get pocketsphinx working correctly w/ gstreamer + python on my Raspberry Pi.

You can already see a couple of my posts in if you'd like the see the questions I asked and the answers I posted when I finally figured it out:

NOTE: I wrote out my issue very thoroughly on Stack Overflow with the proper formatting etc. Figured it would be better to check it out there instead of trying to format it correctly here.
