[Bug 589539] [NEW] WMV file with Windows Media Audio 9 plays with no audio

 

Public bug reported:

I can play a video on XP, but there's no audio in Lucid. The hardware is
a Lenovo SL400, 2GB RAM, 7200rpm drive w/ 36GB free, and an Intel T5870
Core 2 Duo 2GHz CPU.

Media player and Banshee fails to play the video with the error message
No packages with the requested plugins found
The requested plugins are
Windows Media Audio 9

Avidemux crashes when I try to open the 6.3GB file, which I can play with audio AOK in XP.

Mplayer tells me 
Fatal error!
Error opening initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.

VLC says
No suitable decoder module:
VLC does not support the audio or video format "wmap". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.


Mediabuntu is installed in Sofware Sources. I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it. I also disabled, then reenabled, 'Software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse)'; no joy. Also uninstalled then reinstalled Mplayer and Smplayer, to no avail.
Did both repository install as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu#Adding%20the%20Repository 
and also 
sudo apt-get install w32codecs 


Your generous assistance with this vexacious problem is appreciated.
Thank you kindly.
