Confirming that rebuilding vlc with the new libs installed fixes the problems. So this just needs a new pkgrel.

With the current official package, Matroska files play, but seek very slowly, SSA/ASS subs have all kinds of weird problems, and lots of metadata stuff is messed up (chapter titles, for example), as you'd expect. There are probably other issues I didn't have the pleasure of encountering before I rebuilt the package.

I'm also hit by this bug and I can confirm rebuilding against libmatroska fixes it.

@Giovanni: Here is the patch [0]. let me know if you would like me to push it to extra.
