  Hi. 

  I'm one maintainer of ESS driver.

  Thank you for testing latest ESS driver from
http://www.jp.FreeBSD.ORG/~sanpei/

  I use mpg123 for mp3 player, but never have such problem.
  I guess that We tested only non PnP card because We
tested with NOTE-PC, not tested with PnP Sound card. Please
check PnP configuration or if you can use non-PnP mode, please
test it.

  Or, please check volume level by mixer command.  And please report
how it change mixer level when you play back with mpg123.

% mixer
Mixer vol      is currently set to  90:90
Mixer synth    is currently set to   0:0
Mixer pcm      is currently set to  75:75
Mixer speaker  is currently set to  75:75
Mixer line     is currently set to   0:0
Mixer mic      is currently set to   0:0
Mixer cd       is currently set to   0:0

Thank you.
