Ah, the usual Linux music player run-around... Lately I've found
myself enjoying the simplicity of MOC (
http://moc.daper.net/). It
automatically uses Jack if it's running, and if not goes directly for
ALSA. It's terminal/curses based, very simple and lightweight with a
Midnight-Commander-like interface. Being able to ssh to it without
X-forwarding is nice.
