Instead of calling "play_sound", why not make a system call to run a
shell script? Within the shell script, you can do anything you want be
change the audio file it plays, wakes the display, sets of GPIO pin to
light an LED, etc.

I have a Raspberry Pi setup running Xastir, and use the "play sound
effect" system to manually turn on the display when I receive a
message. When I get a message it calls a script I wrote that simply
looks at the argument (.wav filename) and if it's "newmessage.wav" it
turns off the screen
