Another approach:

function conditional_login_redirect( $redirect_to, $requested_redirect_to, $user ) {	
    if ( isset( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {	
	if ( in_array( 'subscriber', $user->roles ) ) {	
	return home_url(); // subscriber role redirected to homepage
	} else {		
	return $redirect_to; // other roles redirected to the original destination URL
	}
    }
    return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter( 'login_redirect', 'conditional_login_redirect', 10, 3 );
