About any non-specialized audio players will support .wav alongside |
9 |
any popular formats (ogg, mp3, etc...). No need to be looking for a |
10 |
wav-only player. |

When just want to play about anything supported by ffmpeg, video |
13 |
players can be simple too, aka media-video/mpv can play .wav from |
14 |
the command line (also supports many audio output backends). |

For basic tools, there's "aplay" from alsa-utils, or "play" from |
17 |
media-sound/sox (SoX can also be used to work on wav files from the |
18 |
command line, transform, trim, adjust volume, etc...). |
