Notification sound in android

In my android application, I want to notify the user with a sound without showing the notification. Is that possible ? 

Notification n = new Notification();
                n.icon = com.android.mms.R.drawable.wap_message;
                n.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
                n.flags = Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;

This is the code I am using to show the notification, So I commented icon and flags of the notification as follows

Notification n = new Notification();
                //n.icon = com.android.mms.R.drawable.wap_message;
                n.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
                //n.flags = Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;

But it is not working.

why don't you use MediaPlayer instead of Notification to play the notification sound. If you use the Notication then it shows the icon. In your case using the MediaPlayer is better option.
