Subject: latest ffmpeg libraries broke parts of gstreamer
Right now several decoder and output plugins are more or less broken.
For example, "mmsh:" links kill any gstreamer-based player[1], first off
I thought it could be the wma decoder but there is also the issue with
sound output.

As well, I can't play HTML5 audio reliably anymore. As the browsers I
use (google-chrome, opera-next) have their own built in decoders, it all
reduces to an output problem, that points to gstreamer-pulseaudio, this
is probably a different bug, but I suspect it is somwhow related.

An example of failing "mmsh:" links. Save as a pls file and feed it to
totem or whatever.
