The player program doesn't determine where the output goes, the system
does that. In a terminal window:

amixer cset numid=3 1

where the second parameter is: 0=auto (default), 1=jack, 2=hdmi
Doesn't need sudo and persists across reboots. I think it can also be
set via raspi-config (which does need sudo, although maybe not for this
setting, I never tried).
