Yes that was the intention.  By default mplayer would use floating-point
libvorbis (or something from ffmpeg?) which is not fast enough on Ben.
Note that for surround-sound audio, floating point vorbis is still used
(and fails), as tremor only supports up to two channels of audio.

Replacing ac=tremor with afm=tremor should be more correct and fix the
issue.

Alternatively non-functioning floating-point vorbis could be removed via
configure-arg or patch?

Any patch welcome,

cheers,

David
