Doing that only opens the file for that one time in XMMS. I want to
change the default from Totem to Xmms. When I right click on the file,
at the top of the context menu, I see: Open with "Totem Movie Player".
Below that, I see the Open With menu entry. Using that to open the file
with XMMS doesn't make XMMS the default. It simply opens the file in
XMMS at that time.
