Good to know about the add-ons package, been quite awhile here that I've
used it. Generally on new install I'm just trying to play media &
looking to see if the gst-packagekit > ubuntu-software reacts properly,
ect. (- which it's doing a decent job atm, always some room for
improvement..
I'd think many users also follow that path, i.e add or access media then
follow the pop up if support isn't already available.

Bug description:
The Intel i965 VA-API driver works well in Xorg sessions (Unity7 and
Gnome Shell). But it refuses to load when in a Wayland session:
