Asking here because I feel like I know more Linux-heads here:

When I was still on Windows, I had lots of ways to quickly browse through folders of sound effects, with quick previews. Adobe Audition had that nice browser panel with auto-play on click, for example. What's a good way to do that in Linux? I'm on Kubuntu, if that matters.

I was trying Open Cubic Player for this, which wasn't bad but I kept accidentally quitting the program when I wanted to go back to the file picker.

@wildweasel in Dolphin, activate the information panel (if you haven't yet), right-click it, and check the option for auto-play media files. It will play them as you hover over the file.

caveat: I did not try it with .wavs but it's worth a shot

@effika oh thank god you can turn off "preview on hover" too, that was really gonna bug me. thanks for the pointer, that may save me a crapload of time in the future
