Hi.  Your asumption is wrong.  The problem of systems not having internal 
speakers any more is a change
in main stream production.  In the past, a computer case included an internal 
speaker.  That is no longer true.  That fact
was never advertised, so there isn't any way to know in advance if a new system 
will have a speaker or not.  Usually, the answer is "no".
Installing one will require sighted help since you will need to know where to 
plug it into the mother board.  Since you need sighted help,
why not just let them read your screen for a few seconds to let you get 
accessibility started.  This is more likely since
almost anyone with sight can read a screen, but it takes some knowledge to know 
where to plug a speaker on a circuit board.
