I need a simple soundserver to play a wav-file (from Amsn) in WMCLOCKMAN. I tried mplayer but that one only works in firefox & Amsn. (strangely enough). (i have a mplayer-plugin in firefox). Why does Amsn correcty use mplayer to play a wav-file while WMCLOCKMAN doesn't:

My wmclockmonrc:

Backlight = Off
# Command : string (what to do when alarm raises)
# Default : nothing
#
Command = mplayer /ramdisk/opt/amsn/skins/default/sounds/wegwezen.wav
CalAlrms = On
Alarm = On@19:00-4.test

Am i using an incorrect player?

Is there a better player for this request?

Try grabbing the sox extension from the repository.
It has command line "play" and "rec" utilities in it.
e.g.
"  /usr/bin/play alarm.wav "

also, you may want to replace the "command" part of your
entry to " /usr/bin/mplayer " or try " /usr/bin/gmplayer " instead...

For your alarm clock wishes,
I would prefer the play executable over the fat mplayer...

If you just want an alarm clock try this or this.

Thank you all... Play (sox) works just fine
