I experience this with rhythmbox 3.0.2-0ubuntu2. Is this a regression?

Title:
  Rhythmbox encoder missing plugin

Status in rhythmbox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I am on Ubuntu 12.10, upgraded from 12.04.  Dell Inspirion 17R with 2GB RAM.
  Rhythmbox works just fine or so I thought until today.  I was attempting to rip a CD and put it in Ogg Vorbis format.  When I clicked on EXTRACT, I got a dialog window telling me that "Additional software is required to encode media in your preferred format:
  Vorbis encoder"
  When I click on "Install" to get the plugin, it searches for it and says "Python (v2.7) requires to install plugins to create media files of the following type: Vorbis encoder" then says "Required plugin could not be found"
  Same thing with MP3 except there finds a plugin but that is only for I386 and not for x64 so I can not isntall either.
  I can actually not encode any music in any format.
  I can play any music in any format (tried Ogg and MP3) and that works just fine without a problem.  Can not rip CDs at the moment as the encoding does not work as above.
  It is probably since upgrade from 12.04 as on 12.04 it was working.  I have not used this for some time and just tried to do it today with the above fail.
  It is reproducible every time for me.

  Tried manually installing packages to handle that without success.
  Let me know if more data is needed.
