Hasty reply.  In further use, didn't always work.  I removed the PCI 
sound card, removed the plastic cover from the sockets on the system 
board and connected speakers.  Subsequently commands such as this 
always work.

set AUDIODEV=plughw:CARD=ICH5,DEV=0 ; play a42.WAV

SPECULATION

The PCI card was meant to give better quality sound and  was operated 
properly by the Windows system present when the machine was sold by 
Dell.  When multiple sound devices exist, Linux still doesn't identify 
devices properly. 

REVISED CONCLUSION

Upstream documentation relating to sound hardware and software needs 
attention. Software also needs debugging.  

Regards,                  ... P.
