Is Windows Media Player set as your default media player ?
If not, try it as that used to cause bugs for Oblivion and Fallout 3
It may make no difference because lets face it, scratching your armpit could cause a bug in a Bethesda game.
Oops, you posted while I was typing, disregard the above and see if updating Windows Media Player chucks that codec in for you.
