Bug Description
Consider the attachments. If you run 'vlc playlist.m3u8', it plays fine. But if you run 'vlc playlist.m3u8 --sub-file subtitles.vtt' then nothing plays and you get '' on the console.

Does this still occur on Ubuntu 17.04 "Zesty Zapus" with vlc 2.2.4-14ubuntu2.1 ? If you are able to test on Ubuntu 17.10 "Artful Aardvark" with vlc 2.2.6-3build1 that would be even better.
