I don't know if it is a bug exactly, but rather the method mplayer uses to play 
playlists.
Try this command:
mplayer -playlist URL

so for your example:

mplayer -playlist
http://loudcity.com/stations/cinemix/files/show/mp3-High.pls

That works on my 8.04 machine.   If it works for you, I would say this is 
perhaps
a wishlist item - that mplayer handles .pls files more gracefully, even if not 
given 
the -playlist option explicitly.
