Per, there are a few known problems with AAC playback from trailers and
surround output to ALSA and there are other bugs open for those. The problem in
this bug report is that the faad plugin isn't even installed or not installed
correctly.

Note that this is quite an ancient version. The current gst-plugins-bad release
is 0.10.4.

Works fine for me, however there is a problem here and that is that
qtdemux/faad (CVS) think the clip has 8 channels whereas there are only 6
channels. There's bug #345756 open about this. You might want to add yourself
to the CC list there.
