Having two issues with MPlayer v1.0pre5. Works nicely most of the time except for the following:

1. If I drag an mp3 file onto the player, it plays. When I drag another mp3 onto the player, it makes a rather loud popping or crack sound and then plays the file. Although technically everything works, it does hurt the ears after a couple of these.

2. Sometime after playing a few tracks, it may decide to pop up a message: "Could not find sound device". Wait for a couple of minutes and hit play again and all is ok. Seems like a buffer or something but I'm not sure where to start.

Any advice would be appreciated. I'm using a standard OSS driver on Fedora 1 using the built in soundcard hardware on an nforce2 motherboard.
