"Media file could not be played." when P key kept pressed

That bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/45728 "Description of the problem: When rapidly pausing and unpausing short .wavs in totem warning boxes pop up saying: "Media file could not be played." If the P key is held down it is possible to lock totem entirely making a force quit necessary. Steps to reproduce: 1. Run totem /usr/share/sounds/gtk-events/activate.wav 2. Hold down P key on the keyboard. Expected results: Key to only send an event when released? Assuming repeat, rapid pause unpausing and stuttery sound. Actual results: Error dialogs saying "Media file could not be played." appear, sometimes totem locks up entirely and needs to be force quitted. Version information: totem 1.4.1-0ubuntu2 totem-gstreamer 1.4.1-0ubuntu2"
The warning boxes have gone but the lockup remains in newer versions: totem 2.16.1-1ubuntu1 totem-gstreamer 2.16.1-1ubuntu1
Confirmed, looks like the same issue as bug #333112. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 333112 ***
