Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem

Go here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/progs/listenagain.shtml
Follow a listen link.
A browser window pops up, followed by an error dialog about Totem. "Huh? I didn't even know I was running Totem," says confused user.
Nothing else happens, no sound plays. The browser pop-up shows audio controls, which is misleading: on systems where the browser plugins aren't installed, the browser shows a message instead of the controls.

Next, try 'Listen using stand-alone Real Player'
Totem launches, and gives an error.

If Totem cannot handle this type of audio, it should not try.

** Affects: totem (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
