Bug Description
I don't know if it was because of using the AMD64 Ubuntu 11.04 system or because I tried installing extra Gstreamer codecs in both the 'ugly' and 'bad' sets to play the Spiderman 3 DVD in Movie Player. They seemed to work just fine in Ubuntu 10.04 on my older, AthlonXP PC till the mobo lost USB and then PS2 ports.
One thing says to reinstall freepats and then remove it to clear the problem, but I'm not sure which package even originally contained it or how it glitched. The Ubuntu SW Ctr has no freepats entry, and the Synaptic Pkg Mgr failed to remove, install, or upgrade it. Is this a phantom problem? Freepats seems to be for MIDI files and I haven't even tried to play one yet!
