For he record, that sound is produced with CSound, sources are
in the Gnash repository (testsuite/media). Just in case you want
more fun :)

meant to be used for event sounds at all, but only for streaming sounds
(where it'd be needed to sync with timeline framerate when jumping
to an arbitrary frame).

This is a good idea. Feel like asking ? :)
