After some digging of my ROM archive, I came across the ROM image for the sound ROM. It was not with Star Trek's files, but Supersonic had it.

Since it's a sound ROM, you'd probably expect it to be huge, at least compared to the ROMs that have the game CPU code. But no, it's 32 bytes long. You read that right. 32. BYTES.

This is because these sound cards have no sampled sound at all and this data basically defines the "notes" the card plays when specific command is sent.

Here's the entire sound ROM hexdumped.
