I have 2-3 Ideas.
When you write : cleaned up, is it correct to assume that it worked before ?

when you just start lavplay can you post the output line where it 
describes the -p option. Should look like that:
-p/--playback [S  ]  playback: (S)oftware,

If lavplay has the option: -U/--use-write try if that help.
Does playback without sound work (-a 0) ?

mjpegtools 1.9.0 is quite old have you though about downloading the 
2.1.0 version an compile it. You should be able to run lavplay from the 
directory without installing it.
