can't control valve drop property

jomifo
I am mixing a video stream with a static image.  That's working fine.  I would like to dynamically turn the image off/on at certain times.  My idea was to put a valve after the image stream and use a controller to toggle the drop property.  But alas, I get an error when trying to create that controller,

In [45]: gst.Controller( gst.element_factory_make( 'valve' ), 'drop' )

** (ipython:2530): CRITICAL **: gst_controlled_property_new: assertion `(pspec->flags & (G_PARAM_WRITABLE | GST_PARAM_CONTROLLABLE | G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY)) == (G_PARAM_WRITABLE | GST_PARAM_CONTROLLABLE)' failed
