Hi, I have encounted exactly the same bug for more than one year (both on Ubuntu and Mardriva, on my Eee PC with HDA Intel). Should I do "apport-collect -p alsa-base" to this bug too? Or is there anything I can do to help here?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Robert

Hmmm... No confirmation yet. Please advise if the information and attachments provided have any problems.

After installing pulseaudio and set it as preferred handler of audio in both KDE and SMPlayer, this bug seems to have been worked around, and suspending and resuming no longer crash MPlayer. So this bug may be Alsa-relevant.

Surely you mean the pulse alsa-plugin? Because, well, if it works fine
through PulseAudio, it *has* to work through ALSA, because PulseAudio
*uses* ALSA.

Or are you referring to the priority of sound "devices" as configured
for Phonon (or KDE System Settings > Multimedia)?

This bug was reported to mplayer upstream 4 years ago, still not fixed:
https://mplayerhq.hu/trac/mplayer/ticket/1617

mpv and mplayer2 have same problem:
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/324

But vlc-2.0.9 works fine.

mpv devs fixed it:
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/4083ae1de37283210d022fb60b6128db276168d4
