[Elecraft] K3S - Is there a way to send CW via USB computer and hear the sidetones?

DM780 will do "KY" (CW [KY Cmd]), it will use a Winkeyer (CW [Winkey]),
or it will flip a line on a serial port (CW) in addition to using audio
tones in DATA A (CW [SSB]).  Any of the first three options will key
the K3/K3S sidetone (MONI).
