totem defaults to subs on and does not detect the subtitle track in the
menu to to toggle on/off. vlc defaults to subs off and also does not
detect the subtitle track in the menu. Both programs have the menu
option to select an external subs file, but the embedded track is not
able to be switched on/off.

Title:
  Regression: Unable to select audio or subtitle tracks

Status in totem package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in vlc package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading to Ubuntu 15.04 neither Totem nor VLC are able to
  select different audio tracks or subtitles when playing videos with
  multiple tracks. This is a regression from Ubuntu 14.10 where playback
  of such files was working as expected. I tried this on multiple
  machines running 15.04 and with various media, mostly MKV videos but
  also AVI videos or simply DVDs.

  On Totem the expected functionality in the application menu is missing
  or the menu item is just empty.

  On VLC the menu items are present but always disabled.
