Fons,

There was a player mentioned on the sursound list called Potamus (a
search for "Simple audioplayer for Ambisonics on Linux" will find the
post).

http://offog.org/code/potamus.html

I haven't tried it myself, but the person who posted it was using it
for ambisonic playback (though it needed a small modification to the
source for mulitchannel jack setup). I suspect, however, that you also
know of this player as the sursound poster mentioned your name.

regards

Michael
