i had exactly the same problem with xmms on OBSD 3.3
the hardware was a laptop which really could not handle 44100 Hz
instead only 48000 (audioctl -a)

this seems not to matter. the xmms software seems not being able
to play anything else then 44.1 and 22.05 kHz

xmms-mp3 pkg installed ??

i have tried xmms from the packages (yes, including xmms-mp3) and tried
the one built from the ports tree. still the same error appears (playing a
44.1kHz mp3 file).
it appears they have written a new output plugin for openbsd/netbsd in
xmms v1.2.8. tried to compile 1.2.8 from source but it fails with makefile
errors for some reason.
hopefully the xmms port maintainer is reading this
