So you did see the abort dialog?  Is there anything else you see that
happens at that moment, and might be relevant to the problem?

Let me be sure I understand what you see.

 . you type "emacs -Q"
 . in the scratch buffer you type the play-sound form, and press C-j
   (or is it "C-x C-e"?) at its right parenthesis
 . Emacs pops up the Abort dialog

What happens next?  Do you click "No" on the dialog, and then Emacs
crashes?  Or something else?
