Playing sounds is severely limited if things are as they were, you almost have to embed a flash pixel that can play the sound, and it is possible to trigger flash functions from JavaScript, or simpler yet, the flash plays the sound once each time its embedded, so you can set the flash embed style:display=none, then to style:display=block again, and the sound should play again. There use to be a way to make a body background sound but its not going to be very reliable or ctrl-able when it plays exactly until the sound is loaded, plus I don't think its really supported or readily modifiable.
HTML5 Audio Tag for the win (maybe) Otherwise you have to embed something and rely on a plugin Theoretically appending one of these should do the trick, especially if there is some easy way to replay or remove (like an onDonePlaying) the element and attach it again, although not all controls are documented here. http://www.w3schools.com/tags/html5_audio.asp Though you might have to require FF3.5, not sure exactly, its new to me...
