Evolution will preview audio files by default if you hover the mouse
pointer over them... but oddly enough, only in the "icon view" mode, which
I find less convenient than GQview's linear list. As a file manager, it
naturally has rename/move/copy/delete functions, but in icon view it's not
that easy to view a whole folder structure at once.

There's definitely a gap that could be filled there.
