An alternative idea... Install Zenity (if it isn't installed already).
Create a couple of shell scripts to call them to search for files and to
play them with the options you want. I was able to get it to work with
MP3 playlists. It worked well until something started putting
unprintable characters in an "ls > filename".
Zenity is a program to display dialogue boxes on the screen. It's
fairly simple and took me a couple of hours to figure out.
