You could try system("/bin/cat <file>.wav > /dev/dsp"). Note that this 
does not handle mp3's just wav's.

(Note that /bin/cat will probably not work for a Turbo C program because 
/bin/cat is a Posix path. You might need to do something more like 
system("C:\Cygwin\bin\bash -c '/bin/cat <file>.wav > /dev/dsp'"). Also 
note that you need to subsititute a real wav file name for <file>.wav).
