Bug Description

While running checkbox, during the DVD test, I expect "Open dialog" to open with "Movie player (Totem)" selected, instead it opens with "ask what to do".
I have Precise Pangolin Beta 2 installed from scratch.
See attached screenshot file.
I have to select movie player by hand, I expect it to be the default on a freshly installed system.

Carla, you can choose totem and then you can click on the checkbox. Then when insterting a DVD you open every DVD with totem. I don't think it's a bug, because another person would like to open DVDs with VLC for example.

The same happens with and audio CD.
When I insert it "Open dialog" opens with "ask what to do" instead of opening with Rythmbox selected.
I have to select Rythmbox by hand, I expect it to be the default on a freshly installed system.

Dear Thomas, ok you're right, but in checkbox (the application for testing) the test case says that with the removable media settings unchanged from default when you insert a video DVD or audio CD the right application should appeare in "Open Dialog".
If what you say is right then the testcase should be corrected.

The same behaviour occurs when attaching a camera, you have to select shotwell by hand.
