Gst-sharp [1] is not ready for the prime time and lacking active contributors.

It all depends what you want to do, but one tested solution is to
create a small glue/wrapper C library with high-level GStreamer
functions and call it from C#. I mean something like:

void decode_vorbis (char *in_file, char *out_file);

...and inside this function hide all the GStreamer bits needed to
decode the file. However, with this approach you need to take care
about portability issues yourself.
