You could test first with:

gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=.. ! parser_plugin ! fakesink
silent=false

and then

gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=.. ! parser_plugin !
transform_plugin ! fakesink silent=false

State changes happen from sinks towards sources. In a pipeline like this the sinks will change state asynchronously and wait first for a buffer to make it through to them.

In case of alsasink it might wait to fill up the ring buffer a little first. If your input clip is very very short, it might be expected behaviour that it only starts up on EOS.
