First of all I doubt that this is a MPlayer problem. When it works for you to 
start MPlayer twice to play files when you do not suspend the machine it 
should also work when you suspend the machine in between.
Even if it is a MPlayer problem, without the output of MPlayer there is not 
much we can do.
