seems that we already have this fix in intrepid:
vlc (0.8.6.release.h-1ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable. (LP: #238873, #243450, #245563)
    Remaining changes:
    - Add PulseAudio support.
    - Enable (and build-depend on) x264 support.
    - Add Xb-Npp-.* fields to mozilla-plugin-vlc, for the Firefox plugin
      finder service.
    - Clean up debian/vlc.desktop.
    - Make vlc recommend vlc-plugin-pulse.
    - Install link to plugin in xulrunner 1.9 plugin directory.
    - Build against xul rather then iceape.
    - Rename the upstream tarball to match old Ubuntu convention.
    - Modify Maintainer value to match the DebianMaintainerField
      specification.
