Roman, the problem is rather versioned provisions here. It's rather surprising that both bug reports don't even show the actual error that happens :
:: totem-plugin: requires totem>=2.20.1-3

The following change should be made in totem-xine PKGBUILD :
15c15
< provides=('totem')
---
> provides=("totem=$pkgver")

About the "choice between multiple providers" problem, the only way to solve this is not ideal (adding interactivity).

I confirm this. The totem-xine PKBUILD must have the 'provides' line.
