Maybe you could try running mplayer with the switch -abs 4096000 This way
approximately 4MB is reserved as an audio buffer. I had the same problem
on my alpha, but this little trick seemed to fix it.

(mplayer works on alpha - with a little adjustment in the
configure script - uncommenting some lines and by replacing _mcpu="" with
_mcpu="-mcpu=alpha", I also had to apply the patch, located at
http://gianfranco.ulyssis.org/alpha.diff - maybe, very maybe, it is worth
looking into)
