Remember that “CC does not recommend the current version of PDM for works with are in public domain in some jurisdictions but known to be restricted by copyright in others”  (http://wiki.creativecommons.org/PDM_FAQ#Why_might_a_free_of_copyright_restrictions_in_one_jurisdiction_not_be_free_of_copyright_restrictions_everywhere.3F).  Almost all sound recordings are protected in the US until 2067 and hence the use of a CC PD mark on a sound recording would be inappropriate.
