Well, it seems like the DEVS:System-Configuration, holding the preferences,
would be the obvious place to store the name of the sound sample file.
Since it is referenced by a file in DEVS: shouldn't it be in the
DEVS: directory?  This is not misc data (which I would think would
be in ENV:, but that's anoither problem) but configuration info.
