I love me some Fedora Faq:

Ok but what about Quicktime and sound. 

I had a problem even after installing mplayer plugin with sound and
quicktime movies so I installed the win32 file into my /usr/lib/win32
dir.

http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/windows-all-20050115.zip

I think there are instructions in the doc but if not just find all the
files and copy them to your win32 dir.

You will get sound and all codec goodness after that.
