Confirmed on saucy 13.10, vlc plays asterisk generated wav files OK,
totem does not.

This plays fine though:
0 jan@osprey:/usr/share/sounds/alsa$totem Front_Center.wav 

This does not play fine.

I purged medibuntu's non-free-codecs and w64codecs in case it was that,
but the problem persists.

Title:
  wav file garbled in totem, plays fine in gst-launch and mplayer

Status in “gstreamer0.10” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “totem” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I tried to pay a .wav file in totem. The audio is garbled in totem but
  plays back fine in mplayer or when using gst-launch from the command
  line. This is a problem because Thunderbird uses Totem as the default
  handler for .wav audio, so .wav attachments to mails will be opened in
  Totem.

  To reproduce:
  1) Open the attached .wav file in Movie Player (totem)

  Expected results:
  The audio file plays back with no errors

  Actual results:
  The audio is garbled during playback

  
  The file plays fine through gst-launch:
  ~$ gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file:///path/to/msg0001.WAV 

  Mplayer also plays it without garbling the audio.

  Not all .wav files are affected. For example the files in
  /usr/share/sound/alsa/ work fine in totem.

  The audio was recorded from a voicemail box on an asterisk phone
  system.
