thanks

I think the current hover preview uses mpg123 directly so you could try
to persuade mpg123 to use something other than /dev/dsp. 

Bug 293198 in the gnome bugzilla has a patch to implement hover play
using gstreamer, but it has not been applied for quite a while. There
seems to be disagreement over whether hover play should exist at all
