I have the opposite problem. The movies play fine after the patch with sound, just the rest of the game has no sound. I noticed that my sound driver was not updated with direct X6. It sitll is using a direct X5 driver. Is direct X6 required for the patch 2.0?

Chances are it's because your soundcard is being misdetected as EAX compatible. Set both EAX and DS3D to 0 in the alpha centauri.ini file.
