imsmr you have to HAVE one called _default_  present... you can symlink 
it as i have
ive got three skins in my dir

notice the full path here is
/usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin/default

in simplest terms just rename your /usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin/skin 
to /usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin/default

hope this helps
