https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-mplayer-playing-audio-dvd-cd-using-bash-shell/ proposes option "-cache 5000": mplayer -cdrom-device /dev/sr0 cdda:// -cache 5000 I guess it's a real-time problem which can be solved by reading ahead. If the problem persists, try to copy the tracks to hard disk and see what happens if you play the resulting files. > Selected audio codec: Uncompressed PCM [pcm] > AUDIO: 44100 Hz, 2 ch, s16le, 1411.2 kbit/100.00% (ratio: 176400->176400) > [...] > AO: [alsa] 48000Hz 2ch s16le (2 bytes per sample) > [...] > That "2 bytes per sample," above, looks suspicious. 2 bytes = 16 bit. That's exactly what is prescribed for CD-DA: headerless PCM (i.e. uncompressed) 44100 Hz sampling rate 16 bits per sample stereo (2 channels) little-endian byte order (Dunno why above "[alsa]"-line talks of 48000 Hz.)
