Sorry, I should have given you the info on SndFile, as well as OpenAL.
OpenAL just plays buffer full of sound samples from RAM.  SndFile
is needed to read sound-files, decode them and load them into buffers.
It is a C library and is supported on Windows, with an installer, and on
Linux/Unix, including (it is asserted) Mac OS X.  See:
http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/

Just to make sure this software can decode our sound files on any
platform, distro or version of SndFile, we are building and installing
Granatier and KGoldrunner only with *.wav files.  Very vanilla!

All the best, Ian W.
