Thanks for the additional details. In that case, you have several options for playing a sound on your tablet.

  • Fully Kiosk Browser
    If you’re using Fully Kiosk Browser to display your dashboards, there’s a integration available for both SmartThings and Hubitat that enables you to use the tablet as a ‘device’. You can use this integration along with the Rule Engine to play sounds on your tablet whenever events occur.
    SmartThings Device Handler • Hubitat Driver

  • Tasker / AutomateIt
    Android and Fire OS have several different automations apps that can be used to play custom sounds. The most common approach for this particular case would be to push an event to the tablet which Tasker/AutomateIt could then ‘consume’ and do whatever you want with it - including playing custom sounds.
    Tasker (Google Play) • AutomateIt (Amazon Appstore)

  • Pushover
    The notification app ‘Pushover’ is generally used for notifications, but it also can also be used to play a variety of sounds alongside the notifications. This can be used along with the SharpTools Rule Engine as well.
    Pushover Sounds • SharpTools Integration
