If you use a SMIL viewer that can handle HTML (like the GRiNS player)
this is simple:
<par>
  <text href="firstpage.html" .../>
  <audio href="audio.aiff" repeat="3"/>
</par>
<text href="secondpage.html" .../>

If you want to do this in your HTML browser with an embedded G2 plugin 
or something like that it is (as far as I know) impossible. SMIL 2
will probably contain enough machinery to do this.
