I had some problems with xmms following an upgrade a couple of weeks back. Sounds like it may be connected with your problem. Try going into "Properties" in xmms and checking the soundcard settings. I found that my soundcard had changed description for some reason (this also affected a number of other applications but without causing particular problems). Check the new description(s) for available sound devices in the xmms dialogue and see if choosing a different device helps. The one thing I've not been able to sort out is the volume. Xmms was playing, sound was coming out fine, but the volume control said "no sound" and I couldn't change it from within xmms until I changed the volume control settings to "software" rather than directly accessing the soundcard.
