Unfortunately that didn't make any difference (except making the initial
volume lower :-)). Probably my analysis of the situation is wrong. It is
definately something about that ac3 decoder, since I found a DVD with
both mpeg and ac3 and switching to the mpeg audio stream removed the
problem.

Wish I understood these formats better.
