Bug Description
The following is on a fresh, unaltered install of Dapper Drake from the daily build downloaded on 2006-04-17. The sound card on the machine is an Audiophile 24/96 which was auto-detected correctly.
On trying to play any of the following three sample files (and others I've tried), totem gives an error message "Totem could not play file '<filename>' Internal data flow error.":

I've tried playing the files in rhythmbox and receive a similar message on the command line.
I've subsequently enabled universe and installed xmms and xmms-flac and this can play all of the audio files mentioned perfectly.
Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'gstreamer'; however, that package was not published in Ubuntu.
