For sample formats I have no idea, for normal audio samples mplayer is
likely a good choice. I recently switched to ROX filer, and there you
can specify a commandline and associate it with a filetype or group of
filetypes (based on MIME). With that you could go fancier than 'mplayer
file', maybe even find a way to stop the previously played file?

Samplecat is a dedicated sample organization/playback tool, but I never
actually used it.
