There is an AmigaDOS command called Execute.  The syntax is:
   Success = Execute ("PlaySMUS filename",input,output);

input and output are AmigaDos filehandles to an input or output file.
For your case, you'd probably set them to NULL.  Execute is a cheap
way to run a CLI command from inside a C program; I use it all the time
to set the Date from my "clock" since I don't think there is an
AmigaDos (as opposed to CLI) setdate program.
  PS: Reference is AmigaDOS Developers Manual.
