By default (RefLink[Play, paclet:ref/Play]) gives a (RefLink[Sound, paclet:ref/Sound]) object that is displayed as an interactive graphic:

Play[(2+Cos[20 t]) * Sin[3000 t + 2 Sin[50 t]],{t,0,2}]

Change the sound display to just emit the sound:

Block[{$SoundDisplayFunction=EmitSound},Play[(2+Cos[20 t]) * Sin[3000 t + 2 Sin[50 t] ],{t,0,2}]]
