Since playing a sound is a browser function, you should first master the HTML to play a sound, say as a result of a JavaScript function. Then you can think about the next step.

Since the purpose of the servlet is to send HTML to the browser (usually by fronting it with a JSP), you still use HTML to play a sound on the client.

Unless you are wanting to play the sound on the server machine?
