Details:

I got a bug report earlier today about the difficulty in playing blindfold. 
The user had to always watch the screen to detect incoming moves.  My initial
advice was to set a sound event for moves, but after consulting the help, I
realized blindfold play uses style 9.  As a test, I set style 9 and observed a
game.  The move appears in the console, but WB doesn't detect it so no move
sound fires.
