Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem

If a user does not have read permissions for a file s/he is trying to
open, while it is already playing something, Totem becomes unresponsive
to his/her commands until it is closed and restarted.

Prerequisites:

1. Have the package example-content installed, or two media files of your 
choosing.
2. Designate one as ReadableFile. Make sure it's readable (chown me:me 
ReadableFile; chmod u+r ReadableFile).
3. Designate one as UnreadableFile. Make sure it's NOT readable (chown 
root:root UnreadableFile; chmod o-rwx UnreadableFile).

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Totem.
2. Menu File/Open, choose ReadableFile.
3. Menu File/Open, choose UnreadableFile.
4. Four dialog boxes appear on top of each other, each saying the same thing 
about an unreadable file. (Expected: one dialog is enough ;)
5. Menu File/Open, choose ReadableFile.
6. Nothing happens. (Expected: ReadableFile starts playing again)

This also happens if the File menu's recent entries are used to play
UnreadableFile.
