Comment (by sluicebox):

 This game uses a fan-game sound scheme (sciAudio) in a form that ScummVM
 doesn't currently support. (I haven't heard of sciAudio before, just did
 some quick debugging.)

 http://sciprogramming.com/community/index.php?topic=634.30

 From
 https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/blob/master/engines/sci/sound/audio.cpp#L70
 :

 {{{
 // TODO: This is a bare bones implementation. Only the play/playx and stop
 commands
 // are handled for now - the other commands haven't been observed in any
 fanmade game
 // yet. All the volume related and fading functionality is currently
 missing.

 }}}

 The ScummVM code expects to be passed strings and this game passes the
 index of a text resource instead. That's as far as I looked.

 I don't think we should add a fan-game for detection if the audio doesn't
 work, but I don't really know the full story here.
