The only thing that springs to mind is that you might have X niced to some value like 10 and its stealing too much cpu time. renice can fix this. Any other guess is going to need more infomation, such as: 1) what version of debian are you running? 2) what are your system specs? 3) are you runnning a desktop like KDE or GNOME? 4) what kernel are you running? 5) is your system normally heavily loaded? 5) what are you using to play your song or movie?
