The Unix VM for Squeak supports loadable VM modules for various sound and
display drivers. Try "squeak -help" from the command line to see available
options. For sound on an Ubuntu-like system, you maiy need to explicitly
specify the vm-sound-pulse audio driver.
Depending on how your VM is installed, it might look something like this:
$ squeak -vm-sound-pulse squeak.image
You should be able to do "PluckedSound bachFugue play".
