One playback issue I've noticed is when switching refresh rate - this issue is present in both todays builds, but not the build from 27 Nov.
I've got "Adjust display refresh rate to match video" set to "Always", and "Pause during refresh rate change" set to 3.2 seconds (approximately how long it takes for my monitor to sync a new resolution/refresh rate). My monitor runs the GUI at 1920x1080 @ 60Hz.
Previously when playing a video that required a refresh rate change (eg. 50Hz SD video on my 60Hz display), there would be silence and a black screen until the 3.2 seconds had elapsed, then the video & audio would begin.
Now, I'm seeing the initial frames of the video and hearing the audio (about 1/10th of a seconds worth), THEN black screen/silence until the 3.2 seconds has elapsed, at which point the video/audio starts again.
It's not a huge issue, but it would probably be better if the video & audio didn't start, stop, and then start again while changing refresh rate.

popcornmix, re: Gui sounds. Dunno, don't have an analogue means of playing, the RPi is piped into my AVR through HDMI.
I found the Bursting Bubbles folder in /usr/share/xbmc/sounds/ but overwriting the nav.wav doesn't alter the Gui sound (after rebooting also)

The GUI sounds on the Pi sound just like they do on my x86 Frodo system. Analogue sounded the same as HDMI.
Other than the limited number of sound "themes" (which is a skin/core issue), I'm not hearing any problem...
