You've got two choices:
* Either you modify the source code of A (and you decide there whether
to push your buffers downstream or not)
* Or you use a buffer probe (gst_pad_add_buffer_probe) on A's source
pad (and you return FALSE if you don't want the buffer to go
downstreamer, or TRUE if you want it to go downstream).
