Indeed, NAS is another good option. I really shouldn't get into this
on the fvwm list, but Raymond's message isn't correct. By default
rplay can play 12 sounds simultaneously and it has always been this
way.

While we're talking about NAS, would anyone like to add built-in
support for NAS to FvwmAudio? This would greatly improve performance
for NAS users.
