Yeah I've been on the lookout for an xmms replacement..  It seems like 
xmms development has stalled for now and there are more and more 
annoyances with it (no equalizer for oggs, random crashes, more 
random crashes while playing streams, your alsa problems....).
But freeamp and others just dont have the functionality and also seem 
to be moving very slowly and noatun is about as unstable as it gets.
