The audio would be stored on an SD card attached to another device, controlled by the cRio via GPIOs or serial.
From the
MP3 Trigger v2 page:
Description: Created in collaboration with Jamie Robertson, the MP3 Trigger is quite possibly the most versatile, low-cost, low power embedded MP3 Player. The board has 18 external trigger pins that will directly trigger pre-selected MP3 tracks, and a full-duplex serial control port that provides full transport control, remote triggering for up to 256 tracks, and fast real-time volume control. The board plays the MP3 files directly from a FAT16 microSD flash card and supports 192Kbps stereo playback. There is also an on-board navigation switch for local access and playback of all MP3 tracks on the flash card.
Datasheet
NOTE: I have not used this or any similar devices, but it looks like it should work.
And trust me, the very last thing you want to see is me with time on my hands and access to power tools. - dlavery [more]
