I have a similar problem with mi ubuntu 8.04.1 (upgraded, not installed from disk).
When i mount my ntfs drives, sometimes (i have not identified what is the trigger) it happens that i am unable to play any kind of media, on any media player. if it is audio it just dont play, and if it is video, is freezes in its first frame. My solution to this is to restar the whole OS.
Does it have anything to do with the solutions you have posted?
