It sounds like the problem you describe with totem-xine is related to
mine but not exactly the same. I only see the problem after I've resumed
from a suspend to disk and re-opening totem will not correct it but
re-starting Gnome will. Like you I'm using totem-xine to support a
broader range of media formats.
