make a solid brush and cover it with the "trigger" texture, tie it to
trigger multible (not sure the exact name) and set the out put to
"play" your sound.

i am going to take a shot in the dark since most items triggered in HL1 are very similar.
i suggest you look up triggering doors, and substitute an ambient_generic for the door. just trigger it the same.
or better, look in the tutorials, i saw a sound tut.. just trigger it with a trigger brush.
sounds used to be very easy. unless something has changed, they still are.
as i said, many entities are similar when triggered by a brush.
fool around with them a bit.

Seriously, read the tutorial here about the input/output system, it
will probably really help you. Basically you want to have some entity
trigger your ambient_generic when a certain event happens to that
entity, such as your trigger_teleport or whatever teleporting the
player.
