After some trouble with changing some plugin info to get mp3s playing, it's now working, but I'm still having a few problemos.
To get the mp3 working on Fedora it was recommended that I:

Just use up2date to automatically install the MP3 plug-ins for XMMS and Rhythmbox like this:
# up2date xmms-mp3 gstreamer-plugins-mp3
One thing you'll need to do is fire up xmms and go to Options -> Preferences then choose Audio I/O Plugins. In that list scroll down and find the MPEG Layer 1/2/3 Placeholder Plugin and disable it. Then enable the new plug-in you just downloaded which is listed as MPEG Layer 1/2/3 Player. Now MP3s should play just fine.

gstreamer-plugins-mp3 seemed to exist fine and dandy, but the xmms-mp3 doesn't seem to be there. So consequently, there is no plain "MPEG Layer 1/2/3 Player" listed there as a plugin.
Nevertheless, I used apt-get to get xmms-mp3; installed fine. MP3s are now working, but xmms is a little odd with things. For example, after stopping a song, it plays on for about 3/4 seconds. I wouldn't mind that too much, but when I click "next", the two songs overlap, and it just sounds ugly.
I'm thinking this might be because the "MPEG Layer 1/2/3 Player" isn't selected. And, I can't enable it, since it doesn't exist there under Options > Preferences.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
