Are you sure it's caused by the fglrx driver?

Make sure you have installed all of the following:

gstreamer0.10-plugins-base
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg

but just activating the free driver does 'fix' the problem

Is this still happening with the latest version of fglrx?

We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help.

This is still happening on Precise with all updates installed

I cannot test Quantal because I see the laptop only now and then and do not have time to do lots of reinstalls
