SUMMARY: Like a king entering an enchanting, well-featured city with huge doors, castles and various amenities, after driving away his enemy, Lord Vayu entered that radiant nine-door super body that was adorned with all good features and was reminiscent of a beautiful temple of Lord Sri Hari, after banishing the life that existed in that body.
What is very much clear from this stanza is that Lord Vayu was not there in the womb of the wife of Sri Madhyageha Bhatta till the baby boy was delivered. Therefore, there is chance for Lord Vayu to pass through the birth process of living in the womb of a woman.
It has been mentioned in Vayu Purana that the being that was existing in the womb till delivery was that of Manibhadra, a servant of Kubera.

(Honoring the order of Lord Vayu, Manibhadra entered the womb of the wife of Madhyageha Bhatta on his own. After the expiry of nine months, he made his exit voluntarily to pave the way for Lord Vayu to enter.)
Some Puranas, including ANumamaDhwacharita and “SmrutyarthasAgara” of Chalari Narasihmacharya, it is mentioned that the day Sir Madhwacharya was born was Vijaya Dashami. However, some scholars are of the opinion that Sri Madhwacharya was born on Rathasaptami day. However, it may not be totally wrong if it is conceded that Sri Madhwacharya was born on Vijaya Dashami day and he was ordained into sainthood on Rathasaptami.
The word “sampUrNasallakShaNa” emphasizes the fact that the physique of Sri Madhwacharya had all the 32 positive features.
A question may arise as to whether Lord Vayu entered a corpse. Since Lord Vayu exists in everybody’s physique, there is no question of insanity when Lord Vayu entered the body of Manibhadra after driving him out.

SUMMARY: Lord Vayu descended on Earth. The happy and pleasant instruments pronouncing “may all pious people rejoice and evil souls get distressed” that the deities played in the space could be heard by the anxiously awaiting humans there.
The surprising fact that sound of divine instruments could be heard on Earth has been mentioned here.
