Mine does. But the bug has nothing to do with it. In my system 
(amd64/Debian testing/sawfish 1:1.3.5.2-1)
the bug is completely reproducible. Open a window in interactive
placement mode, video is frozen immediately, but audio keeps going for
a few seconds, then freezes until I place the window. Using the alsa
driver *and* the dump to file driver it freezes, too.

Taking straces of pulseaudio, mplayer or sawfish during the freeze
produce nothing I recognize as clearly wrong.

Running mplayer under xtrace, however, fixes the problem! Audio
keeps on going after opening a window no matter how long I wait to
place it.

Could mplayer be stuck waiting for some X event that does not get
delivered while the new window is waiting to be placed?




BTW, did you guys notice I've finally uploaded 1.3.5.2 to Debian? :)
