Bug Description
I noticed that with certain DVDs, I wouldn't hear any audio at all, or would hear a short burst of sound followed by silence. Often I could hear the audio on the DVD menu, but not during the feature. After some experimentation, I realized the problem was with 5.1 audio streams. DVDs with stereo audio work fine, while those with 5.1 audio exhibit this problem. My audio output setting in Totem is "Stereo".
Totem played these same discs correctly in 9.10, and VLC (with default pulseaudio output) still plays them fine in Lucid.

I've tried recreated this bug report with libgstreamer-0.10-0 version 0.10.26-1 in Lucid. It took me a while to get the DVD playing since DVD menus don't seem to work but I was able to heard sound through my headphones for a 5.1 channel DVD. My audio output setting in Totem was also "Stereo". Is this still currently and issue for you?
