I got the same problem, on Ubuntu 15.04. It seems to be related to
filetype: Some filetypes still open fine (eg, .avi), but .mp4 and .mkv
fail.

It turned out that _removing_ gstreamer1.0-vaapi solved the problem.
sudo apt-get remove gstreamer1.0-vaapi

Note: my graphic card is a "Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT".
