True but that statistic is very misleading. The survey came from only 2000 individuals and they used players as far back as Flash 2. You would think that the gearheads at Macromedia could pop in some code in their plugin so that a more quantitative survey could be made without the need for human feedback and error and speculation. While it is fair to assume that Flash is the most pervasive multimedia browser plugin, I would not put too much confidence in it as a reliable means to push audio. Your best bet may be to find someone else's web page and see how they made the sound load. You may have difficulty in finding an example page because of the technical and aesthetic concerns. I could not offer an example as I have never considered pushing audio in this way.
