If emergency services vehicles use "sirens" what do they call the things that ice cream vans use to play their tinkly tunes from?

It's just a megaphone attached to a cassette/CD player. I was helping some guys fix one at his auto garage. while they worked, the played Metallica over the system. A whole bunch of punks started running up to the truck, money in hand, trying to buy piercings.

Siren:
an acoustical instrument for producing musical tones, consisting essentially of a disk pierced with holes arranged equidistantly in a circle, rotated over a jet or stream of compressed air, steam, or the like, so that the stream is alternately interrupted and allowed to pass.
