Description PM 2012-05-27 14:35:42 UTC
After upgrading mplayer2 to 2.0_p20120517 it started having problems with (un)pausing and seeking, but only when set to use pulseaudio output. 

It seems to have hard time keeping audio and video in sync for a few seconds after unpausing or seeking. The video speeds up and slows down repeatedly while it tries to resync it. I also noticed, that audio continues to play for a short while after pausing.

All of it happens only with pulse output and disappears when switching to alsa.

Sorry, I forgot about that one. mplayer2 seems to have many different problems with pulseaudio (and they change every release), but this particular one is fixed by now.
