Evolution will preview audio files by default if you hover the mouse 
pointer over them... but oddly enough, only in the "icon view" mode, which 
I find less convenient than GQview's linear list.  As a file manager, it 
naturally has rename/move/copy/delete functions, but in icon view it's not 
that easy to view a whole folder structure at once.

There's definitely a gap that could be filled there.
