It's not so simply as you think. Windows apps use various sound API (e.g. direct sound, MCI...) and API then call driver functions. So it's possible to replace one low level layer for soundcard by another for PC speaker.

DOS programs moslty use direct acces to speaker IO ports so there's no place where to insert another layer.
