Yeah, it works better. :)

Nope, I just started testing with that as suggested by mplayer. On my
system, I need '-cache 4096'. If I try '-cache 3072', I don't get seek
failures, but a few seconds after starting play, mplayer reports that
my system is too slow, and drops the sound.

I haven't tried the values between 3072 and 4096.
YMMV.
