Store it in a custom property:

   set the storedAudio of card "My Audio" to URL "binfile:myAudioFile.wav"

Then have a script in the Play button to spit it back out into a temp file:

   put the storedAudio of card "My Audio" into URL "binfile:myAudioFile.wav"

When finished playing (or when the application quits), delete the file:

   delete URL "binfile:myAudioFile.wav"
