Unless you pruchae an exteral zone page adapter which accepts FXS
coonections, use an ata with fxo connection
I have never had to 'add' loop current, although I have not used all
fxo adapters. I can verify Adit and other channel bank fxo
connections do not require any voltage, the just give the analog
audio out

FXO ports do not generate loop current, they detect loop current
from
the Central office.
Think of an FXO as a controllable switch and matching transformer.
An FXO port will give Asterisk/Zaptel a red alarm without loop
current, so that probably won't work for a PA system that doesn't
supply battery.
What's wrong with using the (usually) unused sound card built into
many machines?

Mostly it uses the wrong impedance, and I know I can probably get an
impedance matching transformer, but I'm not allowed to spend any
money
that I don't need to.
(Otherwise I'd have replaced the amp in the first place with one that
didn't fall from the arc).
Won't you still need to maintain the loop current to make the PAP2
look
like the port is off-hook? (FXS BTW)
I would think the impedance matching xformer falls int the "need to"
category.
