If you press Stop and then press play again, the problem go off for that song, some times for the rest of  song of the list.

Running Exaile for example, this problem is not present, but I don't know if the output plugin is alsa or another. I would try later to play some wma files with Audacious to see if the problem persist here.

Are you using audacious with pulseaudio?

You may need to go into the configuration files if so, here is a wiki on 
a "Perfect Setup" for pulseaudio: 
http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup

A lot you will not need, i.e.: The zeroconf/avahi section only applies 
if you are doing networked audio, which most people don't do, they just 
want this one machine to play media files. Note especially the 
configuration details for Audacious, as it mentions stuttering problems.
