When this bug originally occured, I did not have totem-xine installed. It seems to be unecessary to install a totem gstreamer mime type desktop when Movie Player already has gstreamer installed by default and uses that. The "choice" between Movie Player and Movie Player (gstreamer) is no real choice as both load the gstreamer backend. Perhaps the desktop mime type can be removed to avoid situation all together or similar. ROAF (Ubuntu Dev) on the Ubuntu forum felt it is bug as part of my discussion here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=882453
