This is not an issue with the port. You get dropouts because your
machine is too slow or possibly (if the complaints I read elsewhere
are true) because the sound driver reacts badly to load situations.
And you have used mpg123's buffering facility (say, "-b1024"),
haven't you?

And you have verified that this particular MP3 file doesn't give
any errors when played with mpg123 0.59r on x86? There's lots of
broken MP3s out there.
