Public bug reported:
When playing videos either from HDD or CD/DVD, the media player blocks,
freezing the entire system, sometimes "hostaging" the sound card, making
the last sound loop infinitily. The only way to get out of this is by
forcing shutdown by hardware switch.
I've noted this behaviour on Totem and VLC. The exact moment when it
occurs is random, either happening on the first few seconds of playing,
during playback after a long period of viewing or at the end (this
happening more with short-lenght movies).
There is no diference between low, good or high quality videos, and even
occurs when playing DVD movies.
