Bug Description

Binary package hint: totem

When using totem (gstreamer backend) with no sound card installed to play a video file, the progress bar advances faster then normal and reaches the end.
Video plays normally. The notification that there is no sound card works properly.
Tried it with vmware with no sound card using the example video files (ogg theora) and other videos (mpg etc) and problem occurs. When a sound card is present the progress bar works correctly.
I assume it is synchronized by audio so this problem occurs.

This upload fixes the bug:

 totem (2.18.1-0ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream version:
     - Add xdg-user-dirs support, show Movies and Music directories
       in the file choosers
     - Avoid crashes when we can't figure out a file's display name
       and we're adding it to the recent files list
     - Make adding multiple files to a running Totem work again (Ubuntu: #88230)
     - Misc build, bug and memory leak fixes
     - GStreamer:
       - Don't ask over and over when the user cancels a helper for a
         missing plugin

       - Make the seek bar behaves properly when no soundcards are used
         (Ubuntu: #96501)
     - Browser plugin:
