  This works fine with trunk on a Fedora 9 workstation, but the exact
same executable (statically linked, using ffmpeg directly) also has
sound problems on the XO. So it must be something lower level.

  I built Gnash trunk for XO build 767, and I get horrible sound for
most everything. I did install the gstreamer-ffmpeg plugin from livna,
which appears to work at this moment.

  YouTube video works, and is a bit slow, but once again, the sound is
terrible. So it's not a direct Gstreamer problem. I'll try mplayer to
see if it has the same problem.
