About any non-specialized audio players will support .wav alongside any popular formats (ogg, mp3, etc...). No need to be looking for a wav-only player. When just want to play about anything supported by ffmpeg, video players can be simple too, aka media-video/mpv can play .wav from the command line (also supports many audio output backends). For basic tools, there's "aplay" from alsa-utils, or "play" from media-sound/sox (SoX can also be used to work on wav files from the command line, transform, trim, adjust volume, etc...). -- ionen
