The speaker plays all the sounds at once. Your ears can tell the difference between a guitar and a piano, but the speaker doesn’t know this, it just plays back the ‘song’; everything together.

You hearing differences between the instruments isn’t real either, since you aren’t actually listening to the original source, you’re listening to a recording, and your brain will make a distinction between the different sounds, but in actuality that are no different sounds — there is one singular sound, coming from the speaker.
