I'm glad I found this thread. I thought my mac mini was having hardware problems.

Playing audio with ANR causes all sorts of problems and cpu spiking. After playing music for a while with ANR the whole system comes to a crawl. Moving windows causes graphical glitches, copyinf files causes weird stuttering and lockups, etc.

All of these issues only occur after playing audio in ANR; the issues, too, are permanent. Playing audio in ANR basically hoses the system in some weird way until reboot.

MPlayer seems to work alright and doesn't cause these problems.

Mac Mini 1.5ghz, 1gig ram, 64mb vram
