patch 1746167 in the sf.net tracker fixes a bug i found in paplayer on one piece of hardware i have. The tracker entry has more detail but in a nutshell:

- the ALSA period size on the PCM device ends up larger than what we think it is
- all writes to the PCM fail as underruns, since it's expecting a full period
- the attached patch removes underrun reporting. inspired by what mplayer does

Feedback is welcome. dvdplayer should also be affected from the look of things.

I still suspect the same thing could happen in dvdplayer. I'll look at getting video playing working to test further.

Unfortunately, the only sound hardware I have that produces this problem is connected to video hardware that's below spec for XBMC. Maybe time to try sdl_2d.
