I do have a sound card in that box, however, the "Sounds and Multimedia Properties" dialog (off Control Panel) says that there are "No Playback Devices" for Sound Playback. So I guess that is it. Maybe the sound card in that box is not hooked up. Grrr. I certainly don't care about the sound card for that box but I don't want the test suite to keep reporting a spurious failure.

Now, if there was a reliable check whether a soundcard is present, that check could be run as a prerequisite, then raising TestSkipped if no soundcard is present.
