Although not a music fan, I've been casually following this thread.
I happened to be doing some searches in the Debian package list and
came across "draai - manage playlists and play audio files", command
line tool which I suspect could be driven by a simple script.
.

The man page 
says in part:


--noshuffle (no shuffle), {-S}

Do not shuffle tracks and leave random mode untouched (default is: do
shuffle and disable random mode). See also the script dr_unsort.
