The biggest hurdle is that I need to log into LXDE in order to place a desktop icon and then log back into XFCE to use it. LXDE does not show you a proper properties dialog like Gnome 2 and XFCE.
It can be usefull. For MPlayer, you need to change the command in the Properties window from "gmplayer %F" to "gmplayer -ao pulse -vo x11 %F", otherwise it won't work. For some odd reason gedit will only start if you try to open it twice, but only once from the menu.

Sorry for veering off-topic, but in the MPlayer case, a more universal aproach would be to put default options in ${HOME}/.mplayer/config. In your example:
ao=pulse vo=x11

Further off-topic, "-vo=x11" will be a very slow. Use "-vo help" to get an idea of better video output choices.
