The latter turned out to be correct. For some reason, today my package  
system insisted on reinstalling libdvdcss2 and this made the bug  
reappear. After removing the package altogether and rebooting, playback  
started working again - I guess this is because the players then  
reverted to using my locally built libraries in /usr/local/lib. I was  
using Christian Marillat's unofficial debian package of libdvdcss so
that package must be broken.

I'm not sure why I had to reboot, though. I was under the impression
that running ldconfig refreshed all the library dependencies, but I
guess not.
