Hmmm... SMPEG with SDL_Mixer??? I have a feeling that
this problem bit me in the but a couple of times:

First make sure you pass zero for sdl_audio when you
call SMPEG_new() or SMPEG_new_descr().  This tells
smpeg that you (or in this case SDL_mixer) will handle
the audio yourself...

Also read smpeg/README.SDL_mixer about how to play the
smpeg audio output through SDL_mixer...

Best of luck,

-Loren
