Bug Description

Binary package hint: mplayer

Mplayer uses xmga instead of xv as standard output which results in the error message "Error opening/intializing the selected video_out (-vo) device. Video output works fine again if I change video output to xv.
Btw. I have no sound with Mplayer. If I play a file I got the error "Could not open/intialize audio device -> no sound.". Alsa is the default output but it doesn't work. If I change it to Oss it works fine so maybe Mplayer uses the wrong Alsa device. Totem and Vlc haven't this problem with Alsa.
Audio Controller: Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03)
