Page loading sound effect

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When the user presses EZ Action/Enter, Back, or Next and it causes a page load, 
then a page changing sound effect should be played: pagechange.wav. This will 
often happen with <a href> but may also frequently happen with <button>s like 
in the fare machine demo.

Note, this page turn sound effect should not be played when a user *touches* a 
link, button, etc. It should also not be played with AJAX or page refreshes 
that are not requested by the user.

This cannot be done, unless you're OK with it playing after the next page has 
loaded. HTML5 audio cannot be played across page loads.

Can you start a sound file playing on the first page and have it continue 
playing as the second page loads?

No, it's impossible, unless you use some hackish things like iframes. I guess 
*technically* you could have it play from the background page... But that would 
require moving the sfx module to the backend.

LMK if you want to try that by v1. I don't know if possible, but might be worth 
a shot.
