Play Sounds

Is there a way to play sounds using just AppleScript. Or just not having QuickTime or any other app launch?
There are OSAXEN out there that let you play a snd resource but I'm looking for a more generic mechanism:
Play Sound (some file.mp3)
that will just play some quicktime supported file format sound file.
Isn't QuickTime a layer of the OS? I can script Image Events and System Events. What about QuickTime?


The snd resource is OK if I knew how to save them these days. I think it used to be an AIFF that you resaved as a resource ID but I only ever did this in ResEdit... kinda defunct now isn't it?

Thanks in Advance

Ian
