I did not yet install the voice files, but I do have an (unpublished) "Geekmaster Demos" KUAL extension on this PW3, and one of the demos in that menu is twobob's "Balsamic" demo which plays music accompanied by eink animation.

It played music! So basically, the latest kindle firmware for the PW3 supports sound, even for native apps.

Though my PW2 was obviously missing the kernel module even with its 5.7.4 firmware, so I will need to try stuffing my PW3 otg module into my PW2, and do the test as I did last night, but with the missing kernel module...
