For Kyra and AdLib that's not possible, since there's no way to determin if a 
track played is a SFX or music. At least not with major changes to the AdLib 
driver. The original didn't support that either.

It affects only Kyrandia 1 though, since Kyra2 and Kyra3 are using digital 
sound tracks for that. Kyra2 has some AdLib effects though, so it's not 
always working there.
