Hi, my name is Alberto Ferrazzoli and I have a little trick for
people who want play sound in Mathematica 4.0 under Linux systems.
The idea is simple:
Change default call behavior for sound object in mathematica to an
external program that do the play job.
So we need 'play' command that came with every Linux distribuition.

Here i have the sound.m module that do the work. You must put this
module in a directory that is in the $PATH ex:

~/.Mathematica/4.0/AddOns/Appications/

then add the following command to your Kernel's init.m file in:
~/.Mathematica/4.0/Kernel/

if[$ParentLink =!= Null, Get["sound.m"]];

That's all folks !

Bye.
