OK.  So it seems that the realaudiodec gstreamer plugin is from the set
of "bad" plugins.

The cook.so.6.0 file is in the w32codecs package offered in medibuntu.

This is clearly a bug.  It should at least tell you that it isn't going
to work.

Either try installing the w32codecs package and make sure that it did
install the cook.so.6.0 file and running it through Totem....

or.... (the unpleasent way)

remove the gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad package and try Totem.  This will
remove the offending plugin and should then use the ffmpeg codec.

It seems that it works on my system without tinkering because I have an
AMD64 system.  The bad plugins package for AMD64 doesn't include the
"real" encoders and decoders which rely on the cook.so.6.0 library.
Hence it automatically used the ffmpeg decoder and works with the
playbin.
