Audio with CRON works - not AT?

People,
When I put:
40 21 * * * root /usr/bin/mplayer -ao alsa
/home/phil/audio/vincent_van_gogh.mp3
in /etc/crontab - it works but if use "at" for any time and enter:
/usr/bin/mplayer -ao alsa /home/phil/audio/vincent_van_gogh.mp3
- at the designated time I hear a click as though something happens but
no audio clip.
Anyone know why "at" doesn't behave?
Thanks,
Phil.
