I don't think you want the "plugin" to handle it. You want RealPlayer to play it. 

My galeon pops up a box that asks me what I want to do with that MIME type (audio/x-pn-realaudio). 

I tell it to "View with helper application" and check the box for "Always do the same with this type of file". 

Then on the next screen if realplay isn't listed in your GNOME helpers select "Other application" and browse to realplay. Mines in "/usr/bin/X11/realplay" Select "Always use this helper in the future" so you won't be asked again.
