/**
 * @class KgSound sound.h <KgSound>
 *
 * This class models a sound file. Because it is implicitly added to this
 * application's KgAudioScene, it can be played at different positions (if
 * positional playback is supported, see KgAudioScene::capabilities()).
 *
 * Compared to many other media playback classes, the notable difference of
 * KgSound is that one sound instance can be played multiple times at the
 * same point in time, by calling start() multiple times (possibly with
 * different playback positions). This behavior can be suppressed by calling
 * stop() before start().
 *
 * @note WAV files and Ogg/Vorbis files are guaranteed to work. Other audio
 *       files may also work, depending on the KgAudio backend and its
 *       configuration.
