I should try xine with a CD and see what that does.
Based on your and Neil's suggestions I looked at gmplayer. This is my wife's machine and she'll want something gui based. Anyway, I had to rebuild it to include a52 and dts support. Once I did that I am able to play 'Almost Famous' fine. Audio works. I'm pasting the complete gmplayer terminal info below as it may be helpful in figuring out where xine is going wrong. The highlights of what I read from the gmplayer data is that it chose DTS since that's on the fist audio stream. I'll look around for how to run xine with more options so that I Can see what xine is choosing but I tried to play the same movie first changing which audio I wanted and still got no sound in xine. I notice below that their are two choices made on DTS - afm and vfm. I'll look into getting the same sort of debug info on xine and report that back later. At least my wife can play DVDs again with a little training. Thanks!
