No, it's very possible.  The link port is just a standard micro-jack 
(the extremely small audio jack).  Since you can send bits down it, 
you can send out signals that will create sound.  Just go down to 
radio shack and get a stereo micro jack and use some regular walkman 
headphones.  Then go into ZShell and run any Audio equiped game like 
ZPong or Weave.  Not great quality audio, but it's better than a PC 
speaker (I think).
