[MPlayer-users] MP3 playback: bleep at start

[ACS]

I just noticed about 1 out of 30 of my MP3s give a bleep at start of 
decoding.
To me it's obvious the problem is in mp3 decoder/demuxer and not in 
soundcard output interface:
-This error is reproducible on both my htpc (geexbox MPlayer 
dev-CVS-051213-22:) as well as on my desktop (latest cvs:MPlayer 
dev-CVS-060205-14:)

On an older mplayer version (MPlayer 1.0pre6-3.3.4 ), I do not have this 
problem.
Also other linux players (xmms and VLC) and MS-based winamp have no trouble 
playing these files

I already tried overruling the demuxer auto settings without improvement:
-demuxer 17 -rawaudio format=0x55

If required, I can upload the start of 3 trouble mp3s for testing (tell me 
where)

Find below the commandline output. I already compared versus output for 
normal file and didn't find any clues
