2 users on the slimserver forums which uses mplayer for BBC support
have logged the same problem with pre7 and latest CVS on Unbuntu.

The url being tested is
rtsp://rmlivev8.bbc.net.uk/farm/*/ev7/live24/radio1/live/r1_dsat_g2.ra
 
The latest CVS was used on Ubuntu Breezy. I have been trying to 
help them but I have SuSe 9.3 and can't reproduce their problem.  

Reimar was your test on Ubuntu ?  

If it wasn't then I think it is  Ubuntu specific  something
like a config setting or directory.

This is the link to the post with a log of mplayer startup of the user
with mplayer problem.
