I recently downloaded the Uru demo here:

It's the 4th iteration in the Myst series. It appears that all their 
environmental sounds are compressed with Vorbis. When the game installs 
it creates a directory full of .ogg files that play just fine.

While most of the sounds are footsteps and water splashes, the 
Southwestern-flavored guitar loop which plays as you wander the surface 
stands out as excellent music. Apparently they've even released a full 
length CD of this stuff.

Sound designer Tim Larkin discusses some of the development process for 
the game here:
