This proposal sounds really good to me, because a) it fit's well with the alternatives mechanism, b) it's a usual way to handle such things in debian, as you mentioned c) if a (non-root) user wants to override it, he can easily do it by entering a different player in the config window d) it may be useful to other applications e) it doesn't affect users which have sounds disabled in psi The only disadvantage I see with your proposal is that this would need coordination with sound player packages (to implement a proper set of alternatives), or a new package with a script that automagically determines the best playing method available. I'd be more than happy to change the default sound playing command in the debian package of psi, if debian provides a better one than 'play'.
