Yes and yes! Here is what I use to play music while a script burns a DVD ...
set soundPath to (quoted form of (POSIX path of soundAlias)) set soundpid to do shell script "afplay " & soundPath & " &> /dev/null & echo $!" -- start the music
If the music finishes (soundpid disappears) before the burn finishes, then I do line 2 above again. When the burn pid disappears, I kill the soundpid.
See the afplay man page for more info.
