I'd say there probably dust be a daemon running that is preventing 
playback,  could be if you killed artsd (which is probably running that 
mplayer will be able to run the mpegs),  here comes my sacreligious 
troll rant feel free to disregard at your will.

Xine runs DVD's much faster in linux than Mplayer,  but MPlayer works on 
FreeBSD where Xine does not.... so what's my point?  I dunno,  just saying
/or something
