Have you tested whether your SPARCStation 10 CAN play sound?  First,
some Sun's SPARCStation does not have sound card in the box for some
reason.  Check if your workstation have audio in/out, line out beside
the box.  If it really has, run /usr/openwin/bin/audiotool to play
some audio files under /usr/demo/SOUND/sounds.  You could choose which
output device(internal speaker or external ones) is used by selecting
"Volume/Play.../" on the menu.

If all the things are correct, you should have listened to the sound.

In that case, there might be something wrong with your audio file
generated by Csound.  Please use the simplest orc+sco(they could be
downloaded from
ftp://ftp.maths.bath.ac.uk/pub/dream/documentation/tutorials/,
toot1.orc and toot1.sco will be OK.) to see if it works.  If it
sounds, please check your own Csound orc+sco to find the errors. 
Maybe the frequency is too low or too high, maybe the amp is not very
proper...  If it does not, check if the output format is au, which can
be recognized and played on Sun OS.  Then I think you could here the
sound by using the audiotool.  

Hope those info can help you.  :)
