A similar alternative (to the original question) is that it could be due to the $HOME variable too- mplayer does have config files in your home directory (well, the version I have does, I've not tried the .deb version tho). Well, more accurately, there's a config file that may be empty, and a codecs file that should have *lots* of info in it, and a registry file for windows emulation, to use those windows based codecs (does the .deb have these?).
