if you did have the livna version of mplayer and hadn't made that fix
in /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf already, then that was indeed the problem.
This problem is entirely evident if you attempt to run mplayer from
command line.

Livna has known about this issue since F9 came out...I don't know why
they don't fix it but it's easy enough.
