have you looked at mpd? http://www.musicpd.org/
It runs as a daemon, and accepts remote connections, there are
multiple client's to interface with the daemon, some gui's and some
text clients.
Thanks for the tip - I am having terrible trouble setting this up (even
without trying to bring ALSA into it) - is there perhaps a simpler
package/repo/rpm setup that I have missed? Every single one of the MPD
dependencies has given me grief so far - I'm getting the idea that maybe
this is more of a Debian-centric thing... What am I missing?
Thanks!
