I just backed down to (U)OOo 3.2.0 (purged all 3.2.1) on the same system:
$ apt-cache policy openoffice.org
openoffice.org:
Installed: 1:3.2.0-7ubuntu4.1
Candidate: 1:3.2.0-7ubuntu4.1
Version table:

Opening and playing the .avi in a new Impress presentation works w/o issue. So the problem is a regression between (U)OOo 3.2.0 and (U)OOo 3.2.1.
