Perhaps what the original poster is looking for is NAS (pkgsrc/audio/nas).

I use it to play MP3s and MP3 streams to my NCD HMX terminal (and would
use it with my SS1+ workstation too, but I've yet to upgrade the OS on
it to one that handles audio properly).

	#! /bin/ksh
	
	for file in 
	do
		mpg123 -v -r 44100 --stereo -s "$file" | \
			sox -r 44100 -c 2 -t sw - -t au - | \
			auplay -volume 25
	done
