Resizing an apps window interrupts mplayer

Hi all,

I use mplayer to play music from internet radio but when I resize another apps window, the music is interrupted. I have an AMD Athlon 64x2 2.4GHz machine and this seems rather unacceptable to me... ;-) I have always used a custom-compiled kernel on my Arch x86-64 installation but this problem seems to have started with using a custom 2.6.24.x kernel.

Any hints on what kernel config item(s) could produce this problem? Is it a matter of unfair multitasking resource allocation?

My thanks in advance.
