ISTR a long time ago asking Michel to put the sounds here in a format that doesn't require a plugin or media player in Windows, but that hasn't happened.

FWIW here's the code that gets run when sounds happen on UT:
function PlayIt(tcFile)
{
   lcDiv=document.getElementById("PlayIt")
   lcDiv.innerHTML='<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" name="MediaPlayer" src="'+tcFile+'.wav" autostart="true" showstatusbar="0" showcontrols="0" showdisplay="0" volume="1" height="1" width="1" loop="false">'
}
Regards. Al
