Though they share a common heritage, Ubuntu and Debian are in fact two
different projects. :-)

I can reproduce this as well; a stream which plays fine on Ubuntu/i386 fails
to work on Ubuntu/amd64 (same versions of packages).  I tested with
totem-gstreamer.

There are a few warnings in the build log, but nothing obviously pointing to
a bug:

Vorbis streams, notably, work fine on the same system.

Is this problem common to other 64-bit platforms?
