quodlibet gets installed by task-xfce-desktop and quodlibet depends on 
gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio | gstreamer1.0-audiosink. quodlibet also
depends on gstreamer1.0-plugins-good which Provides:
gstreamer1.0-audiosink.

Therefore, the | gstreamer1.0-audiosink part of the dependency
duplicates the existing dependency on gstreamer1.0-plugins-good.

Depends: python (>= 2.7.3-4+deb7u1), exfalso (= 3.2.2-1),
gir1.2-gstreamer-1.0, gir1.2-gst-plugins-base-1.0,
gstreamer1.0-plugins-base, gstreamer1.0-plugins-good,
gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly, gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio |
gstreamer1.0-audiosink

$ apt-cache show gstreamer1.0-plugins-good|grep Provides
Provides: gstreamer1.0-audiosink, gstreamer1.0-audiosource,
gstreamer1.0-videosink, gstreamer1.0-videosource,
gstreamer1.0-visualization

quodlibet should have:

Depends: gstreamer1.0-plugins-good, gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio
or
Depends: gstreamer1.0-plugins-good
Recommends: gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio
or
Depends: gstreamer1.0-plugins-good | gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio

This bug is still present in unstable, quodlibet 3.6.2-1.
