[solved] What plugin/codec do I need to get MP3 playback in Firefox?

Example: go to http://music.nokia.com and try to play back any of the 30-second audio samples (warning, you will need brain bleach afterwards, because they are 100% awful, this is just an example).  They work fine in Chrome but not Firefox.  I thought I had everything necessary, but apparently not.  I have gecko, totem, vlc, mplayer, all the gstreamers, etc.  I was going to try mozplugger from the AUR as well, but mozdev.org has been unresponsive for days.

What am I missing?

edit: reinstalled the entire gstreamer0.10-plugins group and now it works.  Not sure what changed, as they were all installed to begin with.  Oh well.
