the easiest ways to play an audio clip are the discouraged ones

[Philip Race]

Mark,

It does seem like there's an ease of use gap here that will widen 
considerably when Applet is removed.
The Applet  AudioClip code is actually built on top of javax.sound 
public APIs so we should at least
find an alternative place to surface that functionality.
I submitted https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8323215
