dumping preserves all audio streams, so you can still choose which 
audiostream you want to play. But you have to specify -aid xxx, not 
-alang en, which only works in conjunction with a IFO file on DVD.

"-alang en" uses the information in the IFO about what language is 
mapped to what AID. use -aid 128 or something else (the same number 
mplayer displays when playing from DVD, or use -v to show 'em all)
