have look here maybe:

$ locate plugin | grep totem

/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libtotem_mozilla.xpt
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libtotem_mozilla.so
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libtotem_mozilla.la
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libtotem_mozilla.a

I think you will need to disable the totem plugins that are there by
default. If you type

about:plugins 

in the FF location bar you should see these plugins enabled.
