There isn't a problem with the "C vices" icon - that's the new stuffit icon,
and is appropriate for stuffit files. The fact that the sound icons do
note have an icon means that the sound application is either (a) missing 
from the disk, or (b) no longer has a bundle and bundle bit. (a) is far more
likely.
