I get the same result in 4.2 (under Windows).  Not sure why.  But you 
could try this modification:

   PlaySeq[L_, dur_] := Do[PlayTone[L[[i]], dur];
                          Pause[dur], {i, Length[L]}]

Then

   PlaySeq[{224, 256, 384}, 3]

seems to work as expected, prolonging the notes before the last one to 
their full expected duration.
