Bug#576592: mplayer - Tries to use OSS first

Package: mplayer
Version: 1.0~rc3+svn20090405-1+b1
Severity: grave

mplayer tries to use OSS first. With gmplayer this even produces an
warning dialog box. Using OSS is bad because the default implementation
(the kernel OSS emulation for ALSA) does not support multiplexing and
therefor disallows any other access to the sound device.
