This is how I send mplayer output to my TV:
/usr/bin/xinit /usr/bin/xterm -ut -e $HOME/bin/$PROG \
$MOVIE -- /usr/bin/X :1 -layout TV &
With F8, I get not sound at all, unless I execute the above command as root.
Then I created an audio group for myself and added to
/etc/security/console.perms.d/50- default.perms:
# roma
<sound>=/dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/midi* \
/dev/mixer* /dev/sequencer* \
/dev/sound/* /dev/beep \
/dev/snd/* /dev/adsp*
.....
# roma
<console> 0660 <sound> 0660 root.audio
This allows me to get sound without being root (even logged in remotely in a console).

I know that, and a like it very much.

Yes. It works for xmms. I tried to contact the audacious team via IRC,
and they said: "roma, I really do not care"
I tried, yesterday, the latest version, 1.4.2, and got the same result.

xine and gxine do not work with pulse plugin (the connection is lost after a few
seconds), but totem does (it is based on xine, right?). What is the difference?
I use a self compiled version of xine and gxine with all of the codecs enabled, and
I have no problem using them with the ESD plugin. Pulseaudio works just fine this way.

There is a slight hiccup (missing of sound) from time to time.
It is very fast,and it does not seem to be related to the amount of
processing on my computer: Core 2 duo, 2.1GHz, 2GB ram, x86_64, F8
