it's not Qt at all; what we do is invoke paplay. If you ssh in and do

$ PULSE_PROP="media.role=alert" paplay
/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/notifications/Slick.ogg

that's what the push client does (.../Slick.ogg is the fallback
default sound it plays; if you're specifying a file instead of a
boolean, it'll look for it in XDG_DATA_DIRS).
