Hi all,

i have a problem playing files that are on a external drive (usb-stick, 
usb-hdd) that are mounted via an HAL-helper program (automountd from 
geexbox). files on local (internal) drives plays good. The automountd 
mounting USB Drives to a location like /mnt/USB #3 Removable Disk None (1)

here are the output of gst-launch:

# gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file:///mnt/USB\ \#3\ Removable\ Disk\ None\ \(1\)
/stopobiw.wav
