yes, mplayer works fine here, with jack.

Very convenient.

In my experience mplayer and the likes is
compiled without jack support
on almost any distro, I guess mainly because jack is a pretty
specialised application. Most users of mplayer won't need it, most
packagers won't know it. It's as simple as that.
I agree. For what it is worth, mplayer on my Debian system is linked to
libjack (says ldd), and the package page lists libjack0 as a dependency.

So kudos to the Debian team for doing it.
