Yes, pre7 is an ancient release. pre8 should be released this
week.

Hmm.. There is either a bug in MPlayer (most likely) or 
one in your alsa system that MPlayer triggers. Can you
follow bugreports.html and send a proper bugerport to 
mplayer-users?

As a workaround i suggest using oss emulation of alsa,
which is in a lot of cases more stable than the direct
alsa output. IIRC you need to load the snd_oss_pcm and
snd_oss_mixer modules, then user -ao oss
