Hi Jan,
I can (almost) confirm the behaviour you describe. Logging into awesome
and starting mplayer in xterm muting occurs when *resizing* the xterm
window (or any other window). Moving a window does not seem to affect
sound output.
Best regards

Hi,
i had a similar Problem. turned out to happen with plain mplayer and
any windowmanager. when you move the application Window, after a sec
or so mplayer stops Sound. can you verify the behavior ?

When using smplayer version: 14.9.0 (svn r6994) under xfce 4.12 as
supplied in stock obsd 5.8 >> moving or resizing a window mutes the
sound. This happens under the condition that the
checkboxes 'Hide content of windows [when moving] or [when resizing]'
are ticked. Those boxes >> are found under the Settings -> Window
Manager -> Advanced tab in the main xfce menu.
Muting occurs when resizing or moving the smplayer window or any other
unrelated window. The problem is repeatable. When using vlc for playing
a file and the boxes are ticked as above then there is no muting.
