Had a spare second and fought myself through the mplayer sources. This
somewhat works:
$ mplayer -demuxer rawaudio -rawaudio channels=2:rate=44100:samplesize=2:format=0x10001 rtp://224.0.0.56:46520
The "interesting" part is to find out the correct values for the
`format' parameter. This very value is from libavcodec/avcodec.h .
