The bad news are that mplayer misbehaves and will get stuck every time I try to change the volume. However, this does not happen in vlc. Any ideas?

Well, we need to sort out where the problem comes from. Try the vanilla Linus tree without sound-2.6 whether the problem persists.

I'll try to remove the sound-2.6 tree and report.

Nir, do you have any results? I tried to reproduce the problem by myself, but I couldn't. So I wonder whether it's a codec specific or I missed something...

No results yet, as I did not have time to test linus's tree. Ill be able to do it over the weekend, and will come back with updates. For now, the way I got it to work nicely was just taking the sound and include/sound dirs, sticking them on a 2.6.27.1 tree, and adding the device id as Wei instructed. Otherwise, there were segfaults all over the place.

thanks,

Takashi
