Found the following but it uses mplayer. Don't fancy pulling in lots of extra dependancies. Maybe mpd or something?
Code:
$ mkfifo audiofifo
$ aplay -t raw -c 2 -f S16_LE -r 44100 audiofifo &
$ mplayer -ao pcm:nowaveheader:file=audiofifo <audio files>

for just playing e.g. wav files this might do:

Code:

sox g5ann_001 g5con_001 -t wav - | aplay

Somehow the delays from aplay are only an issue on my laptop, not on the n900.

I still haven't had a close look at the xml file and its parsing - but from what I get the problem at the moment is triggering the commands? E.g. do we have enough events/info to trigger the commands at the right place and right time? E.g. proper distance, knowing we are still on the route, maybe even triggering recalculation?
