Any time I try to watch a movie (VCD or file), this is what I get:

Code:
libmad: ALERT input buffer too small (2293 bytes, 0 avail)!
audio_alsa_out: snd_pcm_open() of front failed: Invalid argument
audio_alsa_out: >>> check if another program don't already use PCM <<<

I'm using the alsa and xv drivers. I also have no problem at all listening to songs in XMMS. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Do you use the standard 2.4 kernel or the development 2.6? Did you do a custom kernel config? If so which also drivers did you pick? Your sound might be working with a compatible driver, but not the one exactly appropriate for your card. I haven't seen this problem before, it's just an educated guess.
