I know it's not exactly a Disney DVD release, but Walt contributed a "Silly Symphony" Short called "Red Hot Chocolate Soldiers" for this MGM Movie from 1934 and featured the voice of Mickey Mouse, who has a cameo in this movie together with Jimmy Durante.

Yeah it's uncut complete with the animated color sequence and the Mickey Mouse appearance. And it's in English.

Actually, I can confirm that The Hot Choc-Late Soldiers is in the movie and the segment with Mickey too. You could see some screenshots of the DVD on my website, here.
