Totem's menu xml has placeholders for subtitles and languages, which are populated dynamically based on the video that is loaded.
The traditional menubar, the gear menu, and the fullscreen gear menu all share the same placeholder ids and Totem inserts the dynamic submenu in only one of them. I've worked around this issue in [1] by not populating the gear menu and fullscreen gear menu at all. I think we can take this for now. We're thinking about how to fix this properly in gtk as well.

This is a regression from Ubuntu 14.10 where playback of such files was working as expected. I tried this on multiple machines running 15.04 and with various media, mostly MKV videos but also AVI videos or simply DVDs. On Totem the expected functionality in the application menu is missing or the menu item is just empty. On VLC the menu items are present but always disabled.
