No. It reports:

$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav

aplay: main:545: audio open error: No such file or directory

After installing the libasound2-plugins package which provides that file, it reports:

$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav
*** PULSEAUDIO: Unable to connect: Connection refused
aplay: main:545: audio open error: Connection refused

After installing and launching pulseaudio (and killing rhythmbox which was holding /dev/dsp open) aplay works and the g-s-p "play" buttons work properly.
