Public bug reported:

So you just installed Ubuntu 22.04 and you try to play an mp4 video.
Totem will complain about missing an H.264 decoder, as you can see in
the command line output:

Missing plugin: gstreamer|1.0|totem|decodificador H.264 (Main
Profile)|decoder-video/x-h264, level=(string)3, profile=(string)main
(decodificador H.264 (Main Profile))

You will now install gstreamer1.0-libav and try again, but it will still
fail with the same complaint.

The solution, as others have found
(https://askubuntu.com/a/407595/818746), is:

$ rm -rf ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/

I suppose that is a bug.
