I just use command-line program on Linux. Very easily to play the music. If you want a shuffled playlist, you can use the commands such as "shuf" and "xargs". You can use "head" to limit playback time, if you use music playing program that output to stdout instead to the speaker (and then use another program to send to speaker) (as far as I know the only music players that do this are ones I wrote myself, but other ones may well exist, that I do not know of).
