Or something is wrong with xmms. Right now I dont know which. I can tell you the speed thing is unrelated. Certain vendors wire the ac97 codecs to the wrong clock to save board space/crystals - notably dell laptops. That is why the clocking value is a module option and you can select 'fix the sound on dell' mode with the module option ftsodell=1
