Log:

MythPlayer: Pause the audio when the video is lagging.

When using software decoding and the decoder is struggling to keep up,
audio sync may take a long time to recover after startup or following a
skip. Under certain conditions, playback never recovers and because we
are constantly skipping frames, the user sees no screen updates - and
hence playback looks entirely broken.

By pausing the audio when skipping frames, we allow video playback to
catch up.
