Preview started working for me after I installed "sox".
Funnily enough, though, it only works for mp3 and wav files, and not
for .ogg. Strange behaviour for an open-source desktop! <chuckle>

I have gstreamer0.8-mad and gstreamer plugins, vorbis support etc yet
my .ogg collection remains obstinately silent on mouse-over...
