 Not sure if this is a PA problem or an mplayer problem but...
 I've got an intel8x0 on my desktop and an hda intel on my laptop.  I
 currently use opensuse 11.1 and MPlayer-1.0rc2_r27637-3.pm.3 and
 pulseaudio-0.9.12-9.5 .  Whenever I unpause mplayer, it likely gets stuck
 there and while mplayer still reacts to user input, it unfreezes if you
 seek around. Other times it resumes for an instant, the audio pauses and
 the video keeps going for IDK, 1.5 seconds - then the audio skips and
 everything catches back up.  And maybe 10% of the time it actually resumes
 with no problems.

 I set ao=pulse or ao=alsa and the result is the same.  It does not happen
 if I prevent alsa from using PA and output directly to it (=killing PA).
 Didn't happen with older versions way back when so this is a new
 development.  And one that drives me nuts.
