Wait can give the PSTN/TDM world a chance to settle before proceeding with
your dialplan. Your wording implies that you need wait() as follows:
exten = 202,1, answer
exten = 202,n, wait(1)
exten = 202,n, playback(tt-monkeys)
exten = 202,n, wait(1)
exten = 202,n, playback(demo-congrats)
exten = 202,n, hangup
Which is probably not true. It's probably more accurate to say "I need
wait() after every answer."

You only need a sound card if you are using Asterisk console commands like
dial. Note this is different than "dialplan applications like dial."
