"When you're ready to play the sound, just send it to a player like so:"

var/sound/S = sound('bubbles.wav')
usr << S

That's the same thing he's doing up there. But he's not storing the sound object in a variable which should be fine as long as he doesn't hope to access it anymore. It's just that I'm not sure if that's the actual code he's putting in. login() is not an actual proc Login() is though.

Try something like this:
mob
[tab]Login()
[tab][tab]..()
[tab][tab]src<<sound('music.wav',1)

..() basically calls the parent proc so the player logs in correctly and login() does not exist.E

EDIT: Removed world, didn't catch that :O

I would also like to point out that in the original code the attempt to send the sound to world (If it were coded properly) might cause a few issues for people who are still hearing the sound from before. If you want to send a sound to world, make sure you either null the sound of everyone in world before, then have it play again, or make the people in world exempt from hearing the music play again (Which means you pretty much just want to send the sound to the src.)

mob
    Login()
        usr << sound('somesound.wav', repeat=1)


This will play only to the mob that logs in...each time a new character logs in it will play for the new character and will continue playing until they close the game or you ouput:

usr <<sound(null)

i have one weird problem though when i put in mob/login() it always makes me have a black map but without it map loads fine

mob/Player
    icon='Base.dmi'

//Hub Info//
mob/Login()
    world<<"[src] has just logged on"
    usr << sound('derp.wav', repeat=1)
world
    hub = "Xavion Zenovka.RealmofZenxonica"//Your hub here
    view="32x32"
    tick_lag = 1
    loop_checks = 0
    name="Realm of Zenxonica"
    status="<font size=2><font=yikes><b><i><u><font color=red>Version 1.0"
    mob = /mob/Player
