Well instead of downloading the mp3 choose open. Instead of choosing
Save. You can select open with. Then pull down the drop menu and choose
other. Then type in /usr/bin/xmms. More that likely if just doing open
with no setting will either already use xmms or it will use mpg123. I
have mplayerplugin installed. My mp3's tend to go to that. You can also
edit you /etc/mailcap or ~/.mailcap. The firefox can be set to always
perform this with this filetype and the popup dialog will no longer
appear for mp3. You can then change that behavior by going into
firefox's preferences.
