If there is no OS, there can't be a file system either.
How are you proposing to load the .WAV file to be played?
How are you going to locate the appropriate audio device?

I will read the sectors using INT13 BIOS and the disk already has a FAT file system.

that won't work for huge hard drive partitions -- those larger than about 2 gig.

but you would need to write a whole media player and a driver for the sound card.
