I'd say this is a porblem of your soundcard driver rather than MPlayer.
MPlayer just feeds the driver, the driver does then the conversion, i
think it just doesnt know how to convert the multiple channels into the
2 channel analog output.

BUT:
1) This question clearly belongs to mplayer-users, not here
2) Next time read bugreports.html before sending any mail here.
