Actually that did help. I'm a C++ guy so taking a look at MediaScanner.cpp in thre OpenCORE git provided some insight. Based on the code the scanner 'should' omit folders that begin with a period or folders which contain a file named .nomedia. A little digging revealed sounds on my sdcard that were similar to the ones I was using in my app. Between that and users still complaining about sounds showing up in their music player I assumed the folder renaming did not work but indeed it did. Placing a file named .nomedia in the folder works great as well.
