Same results.  Here's everything printed by mplayer:

root@sabrelite:~# mplayer test.mp3 -ao alsa

To see if this is user code or kernel driver, I tried running my OMAP3
file system on the SabreLite (the OMAP3/Cortex-A8 is pretty much a subset
of the CPU).  Same results - broken sound when using mplayer :-(
