I recently updated to 1.4.2 and more than half the sounds will not play... walking sound, picking up sound, mining/breaking block sound, and all of the mob sounds don't play.
I tried force updating and deleting the minecraft folder but nothing helps.
I have encountered the same problem. Apparently, Mojang only had the force update feature download sound3 out of all the resources folder sounds. They need to fix this, or else other people will encounter the same problem.
I have the same problem. I am on a mac and I believe only mac people get this problem (I am going to assume you are on a mac). So I found a way to fix the very quiet dropping noises and stepping noises:
1. Goto http://lwjgl.org/download.php and download the file "LWJGL 2.8.4"
2. Extract the file by double clicking.
3. In the appearing folder, goto native >> macosx (or other operating system)
4. Find openal.dylib and move it to your desktop
5. Goto your minecraft folder >> bin >> natives
6. Replace the openal.dylib in the minecraft folder with the one on your desktop
The other noises like some mob noises, I think is due to the new sounds update, but don't take my word for that. I have no idea how to fix that.
I hope I helped!
Delete your resource folder and force update. Play the game for awhile, all the sounds should eventually be downloaded. There is a bug where it doesn't show up on the updating screen.
Deleted resource folder and reluanched multiple times. Still missing sounds Only sound3 will download! Anyone have a link to just download the sounds and import them?

I can hear grass being destroyed, running water, cats and dogs, but that is it.
I have tried renaming my openal files and deleting my resource file and re-downloading it. Nothing works!!!

What he said. Play online until you hear the sounds that are missing. Usually when the music starts playing. Its all downloaded.
