Is there a way to play .au files on FreeBSD?  Linux has a showaudio
(or audioplay or whatever it's supposed to be called 8-]), but that's
non-existent on FreeBSD.  For what it's worth, I'm using the AfterStep
window manager and would like to have sounds with it, but can't find a
way to play .au files.
