AU files are Sun audio files - I have a very large number of them on a 
Sun server.

Many of those do not play well on either of 2 f7 boxen (dual-core 
Athlon, if relevant - YMMV).  However, so far _all_ of the ones I have 
tried work find with /usr/bin/aplay which is part of the alsa-utils 
package.
 
Good luck
