Alsaplayer also works fine I think (on different files), as does aplay. I would be pretty sure that for a given FLAC file, alsaplayer would play it fine and mplayer would stutter. I will try and grab the mplayer source and have a peer at the audio output code. It sounds like an

Just to make it clear that this is a software problem and not the problem that Tim, Paul and Mark reported, could you please try to route an incoming signal (through analog or digital in) to your amp using hdspmixer and tell me if the routed sound suffers from the same audio corruption
