[Bug 380095] [NEW] mplayer repeated audio on OSS

[vandyswa]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mplayer

In output to my USB audio device, mplayer starts (CLI mode), and I hear
the initial several seconds of audio played, even though the time
counter doesn't update.  Then the song restarts, this time with the
counter running.  The song will now play correctly.

At end of song, often the last several seconds of audio will play
repeatedly, again with the counter not moving.

This seems new to the Jaunty timeframe.

Note I've verified that OSS use of, say, mpg123 will play OK.
Workaround is to run pulseaudio and then have mplayer output through
pulseaudio.  But it'd be nice if mplayer went back to correctly handling
OSS output.
