ii  totem          2.16.2-2       A simple media player for the Gnome
desktop

When i'm trying to play a file .wmv totem say :
"Totem could not play 'file:///.....wmv'
The audio device is busy. Is another application using it ?"

When i try to play it anyway (click on the play button) it gives me this
error :
"The Application "totem" has quit unexpectedly.
You can inform the developers of what happened to help them fix it.  Or you
can restart the application right now."

When i try to play thoses files with vlc i've got no sound, but the video
works.
When i try to play thoses files with mplayer i've got sound and video.

I'm using w32codecs from http://www.debian-multimedia.org/

$ dpkg --list w32codecs
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err:
uppercase=bad)
||/ Name           Version        Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
ii  w32codecs      20061022-0.0   win32 binary codecs

Maybe the problem is from thoses codecs

I think alsa is well configured, i'm running gnome without esd on a Debian
Etch (testing) with a 2.6.17-2-686 kernel .

NB : There is no problem with others files, just with *.wmv, and there was
no problem with previous version of totem.

Thanks
