I'm sure you are correct in theory but...

That is not what the PCM codec reports when you run mplayer with the -v
1 option: "[AO PCM] Info: fastest dumping is achieved with -vc dummy
-vo null"

Also, "mplayer -vc help" reports null with a status of "crashing  NULL
codec (no decoding!)" (although it doesn't seem to crash).
