I can't believe that this bug isn't getting more attention. Here's another embarrassing report in a review of 15.04:

Unfortunately installing the "Ubuntu Restricted Extras" package from within the Ubuntu Software Center has a major flaw. During the installation a license acceptance box is supposed to appear for using Microsoft's TrueType fonts.

Sometimes the license acceptance box appears behind the Software Centre window. You can access the box by clicking on the "?" icon in the launcher.

Even worse though is that sometimes the acceptance message doesn't appear at all.

To be honest the easiest way to install the "Ubuntu Restricted Extras" package is to use the terminal.
