It's a Totem problem! MPlayer is playing the same files fine. Haven't had any success on Google or ubuntuforums.org yet, though.

After upgrading to Dapper on my desktop, my sound was completely
hosed. So bad that the login sound kept repeating like a scratched
record (remember them?) and hung the login process. I had to
Ctrl-Alt-F1 and kill esd before I could Alt-F7 and login.

Worked around it by booting with the previous kernel.

I think ALSA and OSS were fighting each other, but never worked out
exactly what was wrong.

Cheers,

Before upgrading to Ubuntu Dapper, Totem was able to play every video
file that I had thrown at it. I'm now getting badly munged sound on .avi
files, notably those from our own digital camera.

The audio codec that it's using is Linear PCM (not exactly challenging)
at 88kbps. There seems to be something wrong here.

Audio playback is fine from .mpg (a Sony digital camera) using MPEG
audio layer 2 codec, and audio playback is fine from DVD.
