  For one stop using rpmforge this repo does nothing but trash a system.
Use the rpmfusion repo then do a 

yum install gstreamer-plugins-ugly gstreamer-plugins-bad

 And now Rhythmbox will play mp3's without a hitch. also if your going
for the media stuff add a 

 yum install mplayer mplayer-gui 

 and this will pull all the extra media codecs and mplayer as well.
