xmms wont open [solved]

I cannot get xmms player to open. Thru the gui when I click on the icon nothing happens. When I try to run it at the console as my user I get this:

[tyler@eLINUXe root]$ xmms %U
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (out): 0xb6dec5a4 ***
Aborted

It was working fine last night (2/22). I closed out of it later that night, got some system updates. This morning I got more updates then tried to open xmms and I got this. This is the only thing that I have changed on my system since the last time it worked - hope there isn't a bug.
Here is the pacman log:

Re: xmms wont open [solved]

downgrade flac.
The old version is still probably in your cache.
