Right, via bitrate limiting for the player.

I think Andy hit it - looks like it was LAME speed.  I'd had the LAME
quality level set very high.  If I set it lower and play a long track,
the buffer eventually fills up.  Still, it takes a lot longer than I'd
expect.  The odd thing is that the LAME process never gets above 5% CPU
utilization, whereas if I run LAME from the command line, it will peg a
CPU (a hyperthreaded CPU on a P4 in this case).
