Bug Description

Binary package hint: metacity

I've discovered that I can't play any videos or music (MP3) files since upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10

Movie Player just closes as soon as it's about to play (no error messages).
Hovering over an MP3 file does not play the file, as was the behaviour in 9.04. I'm not sure if it's still supposed to in 9.10.
Trying to play an MP3 player in rhythmbox cause a crash which triggered this report.

Thanks for the report, is this still an issue with Lucid?
