This is fixed in the CVS version upstream, we'll just have to wait for another snapshot.
Predictably, this only occurs when USE="openal" is set.
*** Bug 124123 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Is the bug still present in newer versions?
I have not encountered this bug since mplayer-1.0.20060217.
