Because 'Parole' is a part of an Universe section, it will be - probably - not updated by Developers in Xenial/16.04 (please see rules about updating packages, because I can be wrong). Of course, your method Fixitman Arizona is okay.
By the way: please notice Gimp situation [1]: there are multiple security issues fixed in various Gimp versions and Releases - even in 14.04/Trusty, which is older than Xenial, right? Never mind. I have no idea why there is no security update for Gimp in Xenial.
Anyway, I solved problem with segfaults described by mikewhatever - an original poster by using AppArmor. Because in the past I've created a profile for Gimp, I decided to check what will happen when `mpris2.so` library will be blocked. And it worked!

With above rule in use, I can play any supported file/video and as Original Poster wrote: "click or drag the slider to seek forward (...)" and so on.
Thanks, best regards.
