XMMS replacement

I'm using BMPx (I think that's Beep Media Player X) to replace XMMS.
Before that I was using Audacious, but that's been deprecated on
Gentoo, and the plugin that allowed me to dock the player into the
notification area stopped working at some point.  BMPx is only at
version 0.43, or something, so it's not as stable as XMMS was, but it
looks nice, and seems to do what I want (although I don't know if it
can queue songs on the fly).

Christopher Browne's suggestion of running XMMS2 with a GKrellM plugin
as a front-end sounds pretty sweet, though--I'll be looking into that.
