I don't know that it's expected, but it doesn't appear to be unexpected.  
regrtest doesn't appear to know anything about expected failures or unexpected 
successes, mostly because both concepts appear at the individual test level 
while regrtest deals at the test module level.  unittest docs don't actually 
say what happens when an expected failure fails to fail.

As for this issue, it looks like the skipping of the test predates 
_have_soundcard and has_sound.  If there are no objections, I'll try the 
attached patch on default; if it causes failures, I'll try a 
'skipUnless(has_sound('SystemDefault')...', and if that work's I'll backport it 
to the other two branches.
