Hi,
The slave alternative appears to be present as of the latest version of
mpg123 (0.59r-7):
[cjwatson@arborlon ~]$ update-alternatives --display mpg123
mpg123 - status is auto.
link currently points to /usr/bin/mpg321
/usr/bin/mpg321 - priority 50
slave mpg123.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/mpg321.1.gz
/usr/bin/mpg123-oss - priority 30
slave mpg123.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/mpg123-oss.1.gz
Current `best' version is /usr/bin/mpg321.
Cheers,
--
