Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus

To perform audio preview, Nautilus uses totem-audio-preview. If not present (i.e. if totem is not installed), it falls back on gst-launch-0.10 with a playbin pipeline. Unfortunately playbin doesn't understand the cdda:// URIs when trying to preview tracks on an audio CD.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Uninstall totem:
    sudo apt-get remove totem
2) Install gstreamer0.10-tools:
    sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-tools
3) Make sure audio previews are active:
    gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/preview_sound "always"
4) Insert an audio CD, when prompted what to do choose "Open Folder"
5) Hover the mouse cursor over one of the tracks in nautilus (typically "Track n.wav")

Expected result: after a delay (about 1 second), the track starts playing.
Current result: nothing happens.

Note that when totem is installed, the preview works.
