If would recommend Audacious it's built on GTK2 and has plugins for just
about every audio format.  

Now if you want a home network media player I've had great success with
the my buffalo link theater PC-P3LWG/DVD.   On my mythtv-backend-server/
I run Wizd (http://wizd.sourceforge.net) to share out the media
(dvd-iso, xvid, dvix, mpeg2, mp3, and ogg) to the link theater.  Sharing
your media files via wizd is as easy as editing the wizd.conf file and
changing the locations to where your media file are.

Example:

alias   	DVD             /media/dvd
alias   	Movies          /media/movies
alias   	TV_XVID		/media/tv
alias   	TV_MPEG		/media/tv_mpeg
musicalias      Music		/media/music
photoalias      Photos  	/media/photos
