did you use plughw instead of hw in all cases?
otherwise they won't work always.

so, mplayer likely uses hw layer.
mplayer has an option to specify the device name.
it'd be better to define a new pcm in ~/.asoundrc such as
pcm.emi26 {
type plug
slave.pcm "hw:0"
}
(where "hw:0" should be changed to the corresponding one)
and run like
% mplayer -ao alsa9:emi26 ...

it sounds like a different one. but, at least, the above FIXME should
be the alsaplayer problem.

then i guess using plug layer would solve the problem in most cases.
