Did you ran the sound set program for discworld 2 correctly?
Dosbox default are:

SB 16 or better
A 220
IRQ 7
DMA 1

Though I can't give more details, don't know how to set the sound with a front-end.
Maybe ask on the BOXER forums?

A dual boot just for dosbox is a total overkill, dosbox works as fine on Mac as on PC.
Problem is there aren't much Mac users, so help is harder to find.

[Edit]
BTW, do you have the full games or a ripped version?
Most rips don't have all the soundfiles ....

(I think Boxer isn't DOSBox for Mac, DOSBox for Mac can be found here just like for other systems:

http://dosbox.com/download.php?main=1

I think Boxer is a frontend whose installer has DOSBox included. I've also heard that, since there aren't so many frontends for Mac as for Windows, and since Boxer must actually be good, then Boxer is the most popular choice for Mac users of DOSBox.)

There you can also find the right default parameters, the same Dosraider just said.

It might be another problem, but let us know if this does it.
