I recommend you just do this:
make cd-sounds-install && make cd-moh-install

This will install all the sounds (8k, 16k, 32k, 48k) and thus FS can play
whatever sampling rate is necessary. I promise you that this is the easiest
way to go. Others have tried to save a few megabytes of disk space by not
installing the higher quality sounds and music and have ended up wasting
hours debugging "issues with playing sound files."

For the record, the 8k files are just "sounds" and then you have hd (16k),
uhd (32k), and cd (48k).
