Depends of the type of sound file

wav files can be embedded

mp3 files can with some trickery and maybe the odd problem

Everythink else will be linked.

In these cases start with the sound in the same folder as the presentation
before inserting it and then send both files.

I would use Package for CD. You can opt not to include the PPT Viewer, so
you don't have a bunch of extra files you don't need.

Choose the "copy to folder" option when you Package for CD -- this will
package your presentation and any linked media (or other) files and put them
in a folder and resolve the links so that the links aren't broken on other
systems. Then just copy that folder to the other computer.

Sound files in wav format larger than 100 KB (i.e. anything but a
short sound effect) and other file formats are linked to PowerPoint
presentation, when you Email the PowerPoint presentation, the linked
music will not be shown.
The differences between embed and link, please view:

Solution:
1. Put the sound files and the PowerPoint presentation in a same
folder.
2. Reinsert the sound file to the PowerPoint presentation.
3. Package the entire folder into one archive file and send it to
others. Do not create self-extracting (SFX) archive since most email
block EXE files by default. WinZip and WinRAR are both recommended to
archive your presentation files for emailing perfectly.
