[Bug 1124408] Re: wav file garbled in totem, plays fine in gst-launch and mplayer

 

I've been experiencing this on 14.04.3. The files are received from
Nextiva (Voip provider) voicemail to email service.

I played around with export formats in Audacity.

On my system Totem seems to have this issue with the

Microsoft ADPCM
IMA ADPCM 

encoding.

Each of these encodings causes the skipping and garbling when played in
Totem. VLC, et al. seem to work fine.

totem 3.10.1

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.
