I have a server with Ubuntu server 16.04 installed, which doesn't have a physical sound card.

Is it possible to play sound (over VGA, HDMI,...) without the sound card? Do I have to install a virtual sound card or something?

I've installed alsa, alsa-tools, pulseaudio and tried to play with both MOC and via a movie using mplayer.
