[comp.soft-sys.andrew] sound inset for Sparcstations?

Has anyone done a sound inset object for ATK using the sound
hardware on the Sun Sparcstation?  After seeing the NeXT mailer recently,
it looks like it wouldn't be too hard to duplicate its voicemail features using
messages and a sound inset.  

If no one has done a sound inset yet, I would think that it shouldn't be too
tough to take one of the sound programs floating around for the sparcstation
and turn it into an ATK inset.  For a first cut, it would only have to appear
as some sort of raster picture (an ear?) and play back the compressed A to D
sound in its data stream when clicked on.  I'm sure someone else out there
has given this some thought?
