I have just run

miro set gstreamer-audiosink alsasink

and now I have sound and the mp3 audio podcast is playing. The HD videos
still don't play, so that must be a separate problem after all.

I have never, to the best of my memory, specified the audio sink at the
command line before, so the setting I have now must either have been
installed as a default or else set during configuration at a time when
my system was set up differently to how it is now. (Settings made at the
command line are persistent, apparently.) Either way, something is
liable to go wrong with the audio configuration in a way that is beyond
what the average user could be expected to diagnose and fix. So either
Miro needs to configure itself better and to respond to changes in the
system's audio configuration, or there needs to be a setting accessible
via the GUI.
