kmplayer can get in the middle, can you -please- test regular mplayer from
command line?
I've had a similar issue a couple of weeks ago, and we were able to track
it down on the mplayer mailing lists. If it's the same bug, I was able to
consistently reproduce it in streams with ac3 (5.1) audio (stereo worked
fine), and only when using ALSA. So, check that and see if you can see a
pattern there. If you see that same pattern, then it might be the same bug,
it's been fixed in the development branch, and the following ebuilds should
work fine:
1.0_rc4_p20091026, 1.0_rc4_p20091026-r1, 9999
If not, then it's probably something else. But try with mplayer alone when
debugging, since kmplayer just adds another level to worry about. For your
reference, here's the bug I opened, there you can also find links to the
relevant mails in the mplayer ML.
