I fought this thing to my wits end, but now I have it
rock solid 100%. No more crashing. Here's how I did it.
First off use xmms to play both .oggs and mp3s.

player_mp3 = xmms -p
player_ogg = xmms -p

fyi these are my info commands:

info_ogg = ogginfo
info_mp3 = mp3info

Now I had problems with this because xmms just sat
there after a song. So eventually I figured out this
trick. In xmms preferences, the general pluginstab,
select the "Song Change" plugin configuration. In the
"Playlist End" command, put this:

killall -w -s QUIT xmms

That kills xmms cleanly after each song, and .oggs and
.mp3s now play then exit without crashing the playnext
program.
