I have the same problem when I switch my TV to 24Hz for 24fps films when
playing with mplayer. What seems to help (workaround) is that when I do
a fastforward while playing and then return to the original playing
position with a rewind the lag is gone. I guess this is a caching issue
of some sort.

Nb when I play 24fps films with the TV still on 50Hz there are no
lipsync issues.
