You apparently start MPlayer on a new virtual terminal. If you want PA to work on that new terminal you of course have to start it much the same way as you now start the X server on it. > >> Yes, I will have another look on the whole Xine situation. > > 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 controlled by PA then? If you connect two different audio devices like this via a pipe than you will very likely get hiccups eventually. Different sound cards have different quartzes with small deviations in the frequency. This, while "hw:0,0" and the pulse output might be in sync at the beginning they start to deviate more and more the longer they play. And eventually you get an "hiccup" when the deviation becomes too large and either the buffers overran or underran.
