Both have speed control(even reverse speed for alsaplayer). alsaplayer have a daemon mode that isvery easy to use (look at the man page). What you must do is to start alsaplayer in the daemon mode in one console, andyou can send files and commands from another console. The other interfaceswill accept the commands too.
