--- Comment #19 from Alex <[email protected]> ---
Julien > I noticed you used --enable-gstreamer

According to LO 'configure --help'

 --enable-gstreamer      Enable building with the new gstreamer 1.0 avmedia
                          backend.
 --disable-gstreamer-0-10
                          Disable building the gstreamer avmedia backend.

As a note, "--disable-gstreamer-0-10" is internally translated to
"--disable-gstreamer-0.10" as it should, so in your autogen whether you
say 0-10 or 0.10 the result is the same.
All in all this is the "switch" that makes (presumably) LO use the
gstreamer plugins.

For completeness:
1.  I have the very latest gstreamer packages (including base, good, bad and
ugly plugins) whether 0.1 or 1.x lines (they are independent and don't
step on each other's toes - so they say).
2.  This is why I first went to gstreamer bugzilla to complain (see
my OP link to gstreamer).
3.  The two sound files, as shown by mplayer (see OP above) are different as
codec so I suspected gstreamer plugins can only play one and not the other
(thus the reason for gstreamer bug submission).
4.  They shut me down (and sent me to you, LO) by proving they had no
problem playing either file.

Having said all that, the key to all this should be how LO accesses
the gstreamer plug-ins which unfortunately I don't know.
Maybe an LO guy who handles this can help us and tell us why with
the current configuration LO (_not_ gstreamer) can go to one file
and not the other (i.e., the way the gstreamer plugins are invoked).
It may be just a missing simple switch (--xxxxxxx)
and/or a library I'm missing and/or not up-to-date.

Thank you for your help,
