If you're an amateur, or have a tenured contract with the orchestra, I'd agree with Dave Mills. Otherwise, I'd keep my mouth shut, play when I know it's expected, and bitch about the conductor while I cashed my paycheck for the freelance gig.
The Chinese have a saying: "The duck who stands up straight and sings is the first to get his head chopped off."
Just my opinion.
