That's a big difference...

Which doesn't have the [ws] error messages, which I first thought were
the cause for the problem...

Yes, try some other ao (for a list do -ao help). Do you have esd
or arts or jack running? In that case kill them first.
Also try not using mad (btw. why do you use it, the way it currently
is implemented im MPlayer it should be quite slow, using the libavcodec
decoder should work as nice IMO).
