Activate Music Player when Imagemap Link Clicked

I'm using a Wordpress plugin (Compact Audio Player) to play a music track on a website. I want this player to be activated when the user clicks either on the player link OR an imagemap link. The imagemap link should make the player play AND change the image in the menu to "pause". If this sounds like a project you are able to complete quickly, please contact me. I will give you a link to the page and will ONLY award the project if you are 100% sure this can be done.
