Default Re: VLC issue: no sound, no video... nothing

Hey there!

The tests I did on Sunday (when it worked more or less) were as root user, in order to modify the "sound" file.
But when I log under my normal account, I've nothing anymore: no video, no sound in VLC, and nothing as well in banshee (a red cross appears next to the title when opening a file).
I'm wondering... Since I had started to try to fix my multimedia problems before to ask for help here. Maybe I should start from a blank sheet, that is, recover the initial setup. What do you think? And if it's a good idea, how to to this properly, without reinstall all the OS?

thanks!
