Title:
  gstreamer crashes when opening WMA files

Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Totem, Rhythmbox and VLC all crash immediately upon trying to load any
  WMA audio file. On the command line, Totem throws the following error:

  (totem:7461): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_structure_new_empty: assertion 'gst_structure_validate_name (name)' failed
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)

  Ubuntu release: 14.04

  gstreamer version:

    apt-cache policy ubuntu-restricted-extras
    ubuntu-restricted-extras:
      Installed: 60
      Candidate: 60
      Version table:
     *** 60 0
            500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/multiverse amd64 Packages
            100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  What I expected to happen: The WMA audio files should play.

  What happened instead: Every media player that uses gstreamer crashes
  immediately upon trying to open a WMA audio file.
