I am trying to play mp3 and wav files on the pi from a program written in go.
To date I have had no success. Does anybody have any simple working examples that Have been tested on the pi?

. Not only can it play back video do a specified screen, like HDMI it can also play audio files like MP3, AAC or WAVE.
apt-get install omxplayer
Sometimes its needed to do this.
ldconfig
ln -s /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabi/libpcre.so /usr/lib/omxplayer/libpcre.so.1
Because omxplayer uses the hardware GPU its need GPU memory.
In the file /boot/config.txt
, add the line gpu_mem=128
or set it using raspi-config
example to stream audio via HDMI
omxplayer -o hdmi Ten_Walls_-_Walking_With_Elephants.mp3
