Try deleting ~/.mplayer. It will be recreated the next time you run mplayer, and one or both problems will probably disappear. Also, for the font problem, be sure that you have a line like font=/usr/local/share/fonts/truetype/arial.ttf (pointing to a valid font) in either /etc/mplayer.conf (best) or ~/.mplayer/config.
