Please describe the problem:
Gstreamer-based music players do not play aac/m4a files.

The problem seems to be with gstreamer as other player (xine, etc) don't have
any issues playing these files.

Steps to reproduce:
1. try to play file with command:  gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file://file.m4a



Actual results:
get :

Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
ERROR: from element /playbin0/decoder/faad0: Could not decode stream.
Additional debug info:
gstfaad.c(1314): gst_faad_chain (): /playbin0/decoder/faad0:
faacDecInit2() failed
ERROR: pipeline doesn't want to preroll.
Setting pipeline to NULL ...
FREEING pipeline ...


Expected results:
to hear the sweet sound of music :)

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
 gst-inspect-0.10 | grep faad
faad:  faad: AAC audio decoder

I'm using gstreamer from debian/sid and the 'bad' plugin set from Christian
Marillat repository at debian-multimedia.org.
