My Multiface works the same way, although with the stock FC3 kernel
the meters are fine, no -7dB levels hanging around for no good
reason. Of course this unpatched kernel is not useful for everything
else.
On the DVD issue, I think this is just a problem with the way the
audio is being handled by these apps (no mmap, or something). Mplayer
in particular would not work for me unless I send the audio through
the SDL plug:
mplayer -ao sdl
This works great for me for DVD's.
