Bug#370408: totem-xine version 1.4.4-1 ignores /etc/asound.conf and user's .asoundrc

[Kevin Brown]

Package: totem-xine
Version: 1.4.4-1
Followup-For: Bug #370408



Please increase the severity of this bug.  Subsequent releases of totem
after 1.2.1-3 all exhibit the behaviour of ignoring the system's and
user's sound configuration.  This bug persists across multiple minor
releases of gstreamer.  Alteration of the desktop's sound configuration
has no effect.

The end result is that the center channel is not played at all through
my headphones.


Worse, this bug makes it impossible for me to upgrade gnome without
losing my ability to play DVDs properly, since gnome-desktop-environment
depends on totem >= 1.4.1.
