As i've told you several times, MAX_OUTBURST is an internal thing of mplayer
core, shouldn't matter for audio out. It's just used to calculate initial audio
buffer size, but the actual size is set by teh audio out driver by
get_space(). If get_space() returns _greater_ value than MAX_OUTBURST, it
will be limited to MAX_OUTBURST, otherwise it has no effect.
So, this:
> > alsa-init: MAX_OUTBURST=65536, buffersize=16384
is normal!
even if buffersize>MAX_OUTBURST is ok, but in that case the buffer cannot be
filled in single pass, it will be filled wiht multiple get_space()/play().

i really don't know why are you care about GET_SPACE, it really has no
effect on yoru code.
