XMMS can play FLAC files using either the libsndfile or the Reference
FLAC Player input plugins; but in my experience, the libsndfile plugin
takes precedence, but doesn't work properly.  So I disabled the
libsndfile plugin, so the Reference FLAC Player plugin will work.  In
XMMS, open preferences, and on the Audio I/O Plugins tab make sure it
lists the Reference FLAC Player plugin, and that the libsndfile plugin
is disabled or not listed.

Good luck,
