Do you get under-runs when running jackd with ALSA backend locally on your
laptop? Some applications have really poorly implemented jack support.  I
cannot speak to the quality of mplayer specifically, but larger buffer
sizes may help (e.g. -n1024 instead of -n128).
Some applications also try to automatically perform sample rate conversion
if the output does not match, e.g. you try to play a video file with 48k
rate audio track but jackd is set to 44.1k rate, if mplayer tries to SRC
the soundtrack the CPU utilization is going to increase substantially.
