Mismatch between mime types and mailcap for alsaplayer

[Aaron Small]

In Jaunty with alsaplayer installed, I expect 'see file.ogg' to play file.ogg using alsaplayer, but it does not, instead, it displays:
Error: no "view" mailcap rules found for type "audio/ogg"

This is because /etc/mime.types shows:
application/ogg ogx
audio/ogg oga ogg spx

and /etc/mailcap shows:
application/ogg; alsaplayer -i text '%s'; nametemplate=%s.ogg

I think alsaplayer should be registered for audio/ogg instead of application/ogg

I can confirm the bug when trying to play OGG files in Midnight Commander (utility 'ogg123' is used).
I had to change "application/ogg" to "audio/ogg" in /etc/mailcap to work it properly.

Used SW:
Ubuntu 9.10
mime-support: 3.46-1ubuntu1
