So my question is, why would there be so many problems for me when the two are combined?
This is because most people like to have video and audio synchronized which cannot be achieved if the video output can't keep up with the speed of the audio. If you can remember the sound from >5s ago and resynchronize video and audio in your brain then there really is no problem and you could switch off the synchronization mplayer does with some parameter (i don't know which one).

My guess is this is dual core system and you use only one core hence 50% load.

Did you try a different audio output driver? You can try the "-autosync" switch too.
