Mplayer, ac3 sound and computer halt

I have this problem for 1-2 months now. Whenever i use mplayer to watch a video that has ac3 sound, at some point my computer freezes and i hear from the speakers a loop of 1 sec repeating. All i can do is hard reset and reboot the computer. I've tried to see what the problem is but neither  the logs of mplayer or the system contains anything usefull. The same videos play without problem with xine or vlc. Also there isn't a specific point in the videos with ac3 sound, at which the halt is occuring. Maybe it will halt in 3 minutes, maybe in 15, or maybe in the 1st minute as well.
Does anyone have a clue of what should i do besides using other media players?
