"Trying to play a multichannel wav in totem-gstreamer brings up an error
message saying:
"Totem could not play 'file:///chan-id.wav'.
There were no decoders found to handle the stream, you might need to install
the corresponding plugins"

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download ftp://ling.lll.hawaii.edu/pub/greg/Surround-SDL-testfiles.tgz 2.
Unpack the tarball.
3. Start totem.
4. Go to Move -> Open... and enter the Surround-SDL-testfiles directory and
choose chan-id.wav .

Expected results:
Voice saying front left, front right, center, rear left, rear right... to come
out of the speakers.

Actual results:
Error message.

Additional information:
aplay plays chan-id.wav correctly.
...
With dapper flight 3 using gstreamer 0.10 and gstreamer0.10-plugins-good
0.10.2-2ubuntu1 (which includes libgstwavparse) I still cannot play chan-id.wav
(even though aplay can)."
