Emacs has the ability to play sounds internally.  See
'play-sound-internal' and 'play-sound'.  I guess it's mostly
useful for very short sounds like beeps and alerts, where it's
good to minimize the delay before the playing begins.

To be honest, I'm not sure what they are used for, but I noticed that
the configure script looked for them, and the final emacs is linked with
them.
