As ((name)) noted, this is a known problem, and a fix is in progress

    pcm      - uncompressed PCM audio
    mp3lame  - cbr/abr/vbr MP3 using libmp3lame
    lavc     - FFmpeg audio encoder (MP2, AC3, ...)

Try www.mplayerhq.hu - from what I understand that should work. Some
URLs were recently changed to reflect this, but not necessarily all.
