Try one of these ports instead:

multimedia/audacious
multimedia/bmpx

Both of which are xmms forks written to use gtk2. The latter is almost
a complete rewrite of beep media player (bmp, which in turn was a fork
of xmms), while the former is a more direct descendant of xmms, I
think.

I'm using audaciuos myself, but are looking into bmpx as it is evolving.
