Looks like it. There should be a folder named
~/.gconf/apps/gecko-mediaplayer containing %gconf.xml and
preferences/%gconf.xml. Is there anything suspicious in there, e.g. is
the WMP support disabled in one of these two files?

Thanks to the bug report I've discovered that gecko-mediaplayer still
ships the gconf schema. That's fixed in the git repository but I'm not
sure if that fixes this bug [1].

I really don't know.

I guess dconf reset /apps/gecko-mediaplayer/ should reset everything to
the default values but haven't tried it myself.

[1] If you want to try a new package without the gconf schema, please
let me know and I can provide a primary package.
