I cannot reproduce this. r17548 works fine for me with sounds and OpenGFX (Intel, MacOS 10.6 and 10.4) nor did I notice sound deficiencies before (but mostly I have it switched off...). What's your OS version and the OpenTTD version you tested it with?

I use OSX 10.4.11 on a G5 PPC Mac. I used r17536 and the latest nightly of OpenSFX.

EDIT: On 17548 there's also static, with the OpenSFX alpha as well as with the nightly.

It sounds like it's a problem of endianness. When the endianness of a sound file is interpreted the wrong way, it produces static which sounds like that.

There is at least one endian issue when loading them from file and later mixing multiple samples.

Maybe the output in the cocoa stuff needs another endian swap. Noone can tell.

Thanks, I will try that when I have time. Another clue for an endianness issue is Ingo von Borstel says it's running on his Intel Mac. Intel Core and PowerPC differ in the Endianness.
