Bug Description

Binary package hint: totem

perseus:[~] grep /sounds /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_totem.py
        apport.hookutils.command_output(['aplay', '/usr/share/sounds/question.wav'])
        apport.hookutils.command_output(['paplay', '/usr/share/sounds/question.wav'])
        apport.hookutils.command_output(['gst-launch-0.10', 'playbin', 'uri=file:///usr/share/sounds/question.wav'])
perseus:[~] ls /usr/share/sounds/question.wav
ls: cannot access /usr/share/sounds/question.wav: No such file or directory

Also, it does not catch this error, so the user is led to believe that their sound is not working.
