  4. B.  Yes.  BUT……Check with your fellow players first. Be courteous.  Rule 4.3a(4), Rule 1.2.  Make sure playing music is acceptable to all and agree on the genre. Keep the sound level low so as not to distract other players.  Some courses do not allow music so check before you crank up your tunes!
  5. A.  Yes.  The General area is all of the course except for the teeing area, theputting green, bunkers and penalty areas.  For your ball to be embedded it MUST be embedded in its own pitch mark and be below the level of the ground.  The ball is not embedded if it is just sitting down into the grass.  Rule 16.3a.

I hope this helps you.
