I could repro your problem on my Debian 32bit system with OGG files.
And ogg seemed to have worked fine on older mplayer builds.
Fix was to manualy copy new file codecs.conf from build dir 

cp etc/codecs.conf ~user/.mplayer/codecs.conf

where user is the one trying to play OGG files

also if root you can possibly put it in the system wide /etc/mplayer
(untested)

There were some changes from an older version I had copied previously

Notes: ( internal tremor support disabled so compile will work
         why on by default?)
        ( never ran make install after a compile)
