Comment(by orbisvicis):

 quitr: Sounds similar to Arch bug#19322 @
 http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19322 which is now closed.

 Until pulseaudio moves to extra I build mplayer myself to get the mplayer
 pulseaudio output driver/module thingy.

 I tend to agree that the root problem is in pulseadio. If the mplayer alsa
 output works fine with alsa, then it shouldn't cause stuttering with
 pulseaudio, right? The alsa -> pulseaudio -> alsa -> soundcard process
 should be a transparent drop-in?

 On the flip side, with the mplayer audio output set to pulse, I get some
 audio glitches now and then. Posit that mplayer alsa output can't handle
 glitching sound, but the cause of the glitching sound is pulse?
