Find an mp3 file, right click on it, select Properties, select Open With,
select the application you want to use for mp3's. All mp3's should open
with that application after that.

If Mplayer is not listed, you can add it.

Not the case. Even if mplayer is still open after a song has played,
clicking on another mp3 caused banshee to open again.
I have gnome mplayer as default in properties.
