I am using SuSE 9.1 pro and I have been using MPlayer and Xine for several months with no problems. I tried to view a movie last evening and there was no sound, only a severe buzzing. This happens with both MPlayer and Xine. If I run from the command line this is the output.

I have a /dev/mixer and I have rw rights to it.
Music with XMMS and all other music players work without problem. I would really like to be able to hear the videos as I watch. Don't know how I broke it, but need help to fix it.
Thank's
David
