Probably the easiest way is through an audio editor. One is audacity,
which is great, and is located in extras? I think.

Another one I have been playing with is Marlin.  This is available from
freedesktop.org as part of their gstreamer suite.  

In both, its just a simple as selecting what you want to split. Edit,
Copy and paste in a new file. 

There is also the mp3split program http://mp3splt.sourceforge.net/.  I
have no direct experience with this program so be careful.

If you want to play from the CLI, I think I remember doing it with lame
somehow, someway, but I cant remember exactly at the moment.

As far a decoding back to WAV, most CD burning apps will do that for
you, including K3B. If you want to keep a copy of the wav, or just
decode both Audacity and Marlin support this. In Audacity, just export
to WAV. In Marlin, just save as a file with a .wav extension. 

Keep in mind however, that mp3 is lossy and den-coding will not gain any
quality back.

Hope this helps.
