For .au, I just use 'cat filename.au >/dev/audio'.
For .wav, I use bplay
For .mid, I recommend timidity, which actually converts the file to .wav
and uses a library of sounds.  playmidi is pretty good if you have a
decent midi sequencer available. 

These are all available as debian packages.  There are others, as well.
