I don't know if this will help, but it is not technical in any way. When I installed RH9 a couple weeks ago, I tried to play an mp3 and it came back with a message that because of copyright changes, XMMS could not play that format. Well, I gave up on it for a bit, until I decided to update it from the site. it came up first by decoding my mp3s to WAVs, then when I changed the output plug-in to the other, it came back with the message that my soundcard wasn't configured, or some other program was using it. I ran soundcard detection. And after, it played my mp3s. Every now and then, I have to run soundcard detection a couple times to get it to work, but it always does. That is my version of hacking the system. Just pound it til it works... Hope it helps!

I'm not sure what the default plugin settings are for xmms-mp3, but you may check to make sure the mp3 plugin is there and enabled. You can do this by Ctrl-P, then selecting the 'Audio I/O Plugins' tab.
