No, it really doesn't.  All of the sound functions, with the exception of
actually defining mode.sound=1 (in setup.c) is in sound.c.  A simple #ifdef
around sound.c, or just not including it through configuration options,
is all that's required in the meantime before support really gets there for the
others.  I'd help, but I don't know anything about sound programming, never
mind on platforms I haven't touched since my school days.  I hope no one puts
any onus on Raster--after all, he was just (cringe!) following up on my
suggestion of sound.  Even if a "dummy" driver is there as an ESD option itself,
at least applications can assume there is sound support now.  It's not an API by
any means, but it's free-wheeling good way to go.  (I think.)

Any volunteers for making ESD have a "dummy driver" mode?
