I second that, it's pretty much my favorite GUI player. It has its own
share of problems of course, and development is pretty much stalled
since a while, but it might do the trick.

If you don't specify the output and it finds jack running it will
autoconnect, however, 'aqualung -o jack' is enough to make it start
without autoconnection.

It uses libsamplerate for resampling, supports lots of formats,
depending on what's compiled in, but I think it's lacking in the
multichannel department.
