I'm experiencing the same problem. Sometimes when playing mp3 tunes my box will suddenly freeze without any error messages and I have to push the evil reset button.
I never had any problems with playing mp3 files under the 2.0.x kernels, and I played > 4000 of them (running a cgi based jukebox) > >I am using mpg123 version 0.59o however as I said I also had the problem >using replay so I don't think it's program specific.
mpg123 0.59p here, havent tried any other mp3 players yet.

Yes, that's a sure way to do it (I'm not using that Netscape fix posted recently)
My setup is 2.2.0-pre9, gcc 2.7.2.3, glibc 2.0.7 Hardware: pent 200, ide, awe64 as soundcard, software raid1, ne2kpci NIC, no SMP, aic-2920 with 4 7-cd-changers attached (I get the freeze also when playing the mp3 files from harddisk...)
I have modularized almost everything I could, using kmod to load the sounddrivers and everything.
