Are you running in full screen with -vo xv? If you are, what happens if you
press F twice, to go out of fullscreen mode and back in again? Does that fix
the problem?
I wonder if it's related to the bug at the moment where the video overlay
isn't properly created sometimes when mplayer is first loaded?

Although if you have to restart X to fix the problem, then maybe not...if you
absolutely can't get it to work without restarting X, then it seems like it's
a problem with your video card drivers. You could try upgrading them to see
if that makes a difference.
Cheers,
Adam.
