Some users encounter this problem that there's no sound in these games. An error also says that OpenALL is not supported. A solution that worked for me was to go to Applications > Utilities and open Audio MIDI Setup. Once there, in "Properties For:" choose "Built-in Output."
Then in "Audio Output" you'll see right by the "Format" 2ch-16bit/2ch-20bit/2ch-24bit. Choose from the scroll menu 2ch-16bit. The make sure the Hz is 44100.0Hz. After doing that, you should have shoud for these games!

Note: this might not work for older versions of MAC, which do not have OpanALL naturally installed.
