Hi, Bruno.
So I tested it now.
Well, the AY is connected into the internal speaker and I can hear the sound pretty OK. However it's connected to MIC port badly or isn't at all (most weird) because somewhere on the edge of audibility I can hear something. But it's so silent that it could be also only a non-intentional cross on circuits. :(
If I had some program with a song, I would be more sure (two tones from SOUND are not enough :) ).
