Your system is configured so non-root users don't have access to 
high-frequency timing data, which is very useful for audio/video 
playback.  I highly recommend fixing this (although it most likely won't 
affect the sync problem).  Do exactly as the MPlayer error describes to 
enable non-root users access to 1024Hz timing data.

This might be the problem.  Any way you can get a version of MPlayer 
compiled against ALSA 1.0.9?

HTH.
