Best native UPnP-controllable music player


Pretty simple. I'm looking for a UPnP-controllable music player that works with Ubuntu 13.10. Now, to be specific, I'm not looking for a media server. I'm looking for a player that will reside on my desktop, play through my desktop's audio, for all intents and purposes reside on my desktop without forwarding audio anywhere, but supports the UPnP control system. I know there's an ancient Rhythmbox plugin that to my knowledge hasn't been maintained in five years and foobar2000 supports it, but would require wine. I'm looking for a native program that supports this without having to lock myself into an old version. Does anyone have any ideas?

I'd prefer to be able to use foobar2000 as my control method, but I'll work with what I can get. The end goal is being able to use my media keys on my Windows 7 laptop to control my Ubuntu system's music player, regardless of how that happens.
