vlc, mplayer and totem all have a sound lag

Curious, i just recently came over to archlinux and i'm quite pleased, just one little speed bump to getting completely setup.  I'm using alsa and openbox, and it doesn't seem which application I use, certain videos that i know worked flawlessly in other distributions seem to lag in audio.  It's not all my files.  Most of my avi's seem to be fine, it's more mpegs and wmvs than anything else.   But I can't seem to figure out why vlc and totem would have the exact same problem as they use different codecs all together (or am i wrong about this?)

Never had this problem on ubuntu, suse, fedora, gentoo, or windows for that matter.  Any ideas ?
