This is from 
Squeak-3.4-1/platforms/unix/plugins/SoundPlugin/sqUnixSound.c:

  * NOTE: The real sound support code is in one of the following files 
according
  *       to the output driver selected by `configure':
  *
  *         sqUnixSoundOSS.c     (Open Sound System [incl. Linux native 
& ALSA compat])
  *         sqUnixSoundNAS.c     (Network Audio System)
  *         sqUnixSoundSun.c     (SunOS/Solaris)
  *         sqUnixSoundNone.c    (no sound support)

This is why I think Solaris sound should be supported. I don't actually 
use a SUN myself nowadays. I also do not know what sound config the 
binary at Ian's site is using. So compiling your own might be better, 
indeed.
