You seems to be correct!  My fault, sorry!  Apparently, liba52 *is* the
internal AC3 decoder for MPlayer.  There is no other (as far is I know)
AC3 decoder for MPlayer beside the hwac3.  I was confused by the output
of "mplayer -ac help".  Sorry.

I really want to help you, but I don't know how.

Install the package "libxv-dev" and "xv" video driver should work in
MPlayer.
