mp3 misbehaving in xmms

[Gary Stainburn]

Hi folks.

I've installed xmms-mpg123-1.2.7-21 (RH9 but supposed to work with FC1) 
to be able to play MP3 files but it didn't work properly.  I did a yum 
update to bring xmms and xmms-skins up to the latest versions but stil 
the same.

I uninstalled all of the xmms stull and downloaded the latest (same 
version as yum) direct from xmms.org which already had  mp3 built in, 
but still the same.

What happens is, I select a directory containing mp3 files and tel it to 
play. Once it starts playing t flies through all of the files taking 
about 2 per file, and all I get out of the speakers is a very quiet 
squeal.

Anyone got any ideas.  Th machine is dual boot XP and the files play 
fine under XP. All other audio works under Linux.

The kit is:

Brand new P4 3G, 1GB RAM, ASUS P4P800+ with onboard audio, FC1 + full 
yum update
