So why don't you just keep using xmms? Do you have any problems with it?

Doesn't the xmms-wma plugin work for you?
$ eix -c xmms-wma
[N] media-plugins/xmms-wma [1] ((~)1.0.5): XMMS plugin to play wma
[1] (layman/zugaina)
Personally I most certainly wouldn't use the zugaina overlay through layman
since it contains a lot of packages that are also in the tree and I really
want to use the official versions of those packages. It is, however, quite
easy to manually pull xmms and the xmms media-plugins from the zugaina overlay.
E.g.:
# mkdir -p /usr/local/xmms-overlay
# rsync -rlp rsync://gentoo.zugaina.org/zugaina-portage/media-sound/xmms
/usr/local/xmms-overlay/media-sound
# rsync -rlp rsync://gentoo.zugaina.org/zugaina-portage/media-plugins
/usr/local/xmms-overlay
# echo 'PORTDIR_OVERLAY="${PORTDIR_OVERLAY} /usr/local/xmms-overlay"' >>
/etc/make.conf
