I have little idea what you are telling us.

I am saying that unless I use the GUI, witch gives me no sound, I can not use Mplayer. The first post is what I got when I tried to play a song using Mplayer. In the second is what I got from running mplayer, mplayer -ao help, and mplayer -vo help in that order.

By first and second, I mean the two long ones.
