[GRLUG] Playing a g711 file

[Michael Mol]

Try running it through mplayer and/or ffmpeg; if an audio file can be
decoded under Linux, one of those two can usually do it.

As far as GUI stuff, the gstreamer-plugins-bad (or is it
gstreamer-plugins-ugly?) often brings to gstreamer support for things
usually left to ffmpeg and mplayer.
