First thanks for that detailed description of the problem. It look that
the DVDs IFO structure has wrong audio information. mplayer says it has
one track, tcprobe says it has five (0-4). Both are right in some way, 
because it looks in fact there is one track, but placed on channel #4 
(that's why transcode -a 4 works).

Are you able to select the DVD audio track #4 on the transcode tab? (you
should, if dvd::rip detected four tracks). If yes, first select DVD 
Audio track #0 and deactivate it by setting Target track to "Skip / 
Deactivate this track". Then select DVD audio track #4 and assign it to
Target track #0. Now dvd::rip should be able to transcode this title. 
(these actions simply result in transcode -a 4 ;)

This multiple audio track handling in dvd::rip 0.52.x using these two 
popups is somewhat confusing. That's why dvd::rip 0.97.x has a new 
dialog to assign multiple audio tracks in a more convenient way.
