That output suggests that mplayer is running inside the app, but no audio is coming out of it. I am a bit out of my depth here - I have no idea what would cause the difference in your environment vs mine that makes it not work. I will do a little more research but unfortunately I don't have any ideas and don't think I'll be able to help without being able to see the error on my own machine.
Some thoughts: - Do you have any special configurations or programs installed that might interfere with audio output? - Maybe the volume of the app is down for some reason? - Maybe the card has become misconfigured? Try downloading the "Musical Key Signatures" cards from https://mnemosyne-proj.org/card-sets/music, which is what I used for testing. - You could try cleaning out (or just moving to a backup location) /Users/<you>/Library/Application Support/Mnemosyne to see if the default configuration generated by the app works better Sorry I'm not much more help.
