Is it possible to have an embedded sound in a web page, that does not automatically play when the page is loaded, with no controls visible, and for it to play only when a certain link/image is clicked on?

For Internet Explorer, in the <head> section, put:
<bgsound id="bgs" loop="-1" src=""></bgsound>

Then in the onclick() handler of your image, link, whatever
if (document.all) document.all.bgs.src="/sounds/itsSoEasy.mid"
