[opensuse] Trying to play sound from inside a cron job

I have this test line in my user crontab:
* * * * * /usr/bin/play /tmp/time.wav
But I get this failure message (via mail) and no sound:
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1010:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
/usr/bin/play FAIL formats: can't open output file `default': snd_pcm_open
error: Device or resource busy
Needless to say, that same command line on the CLI works just fine.
- -- Cheers,
