Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem

In intrepid, totem is no longer able to play m3u playlist files.

It shows an error:

** Message: Error: This appears to be a text file
gstdecodebin.c(1657): type_found (): /play/decodebin0:
decodebin cannot decode plain text files

It used to work fine up to Hardy with the same files so this is a regression.
It's not a matter of CR/LF.

To reproduce, enter a directory containing mp3 files, then

ls *.mp3 > foo.m3u

and either try "totem foo.m3u" or click on this m3u in nautilus.
