Yes alsaplayer does work fine with jack. For Joe this would be a perfect
solution for playing back his demos. However, as an everyday media
player/juke box alsaplayer lacks a lot of the features of XMMS. The
compact UI (as Steve mentioned), EQ, managable playlists,  etc. I'd
really like to see the xmms-jack plugin work as the xmms-alsa plugin
works fine.
