[MPlayer-users] Mplayer 0.90 fails to play back sound of Quicktime movie filerecorded on SGI. Mplayer 0.60 works fine.

Quicktime movie files recorded using an SGI O2 are played correctly
with Mplayer 0.60 and also with SGI's mediaplayer tool.
With Mplayer 0.90, the sound is played at about half speed and with
some distortions. The video looks correct, but of course it gets far
ahead of the sound quickly.

I tried this on IRIX 6.5.17, SuSE 8.0 and SuSE 8.1 with various
versions of Mplayer 0.90. They all fail. Mplayer 0.60 works.

Is this a known bug?

If not, I'd be happy to submit a bug report and upload a movie file.

Here is how SGI's dminfo describes the movie file:
