EDIT: Sound fixes abound; here's another one I recently used that was very simple:

I recently bought Max Payne via Steam on a Vista PC, and I encountered sound glitches that I managed to fix after looking around for a few minutes. Here's what I did so future users need not figure this out for themselves.
First, I followed the instructions at the 3DRealms forums, http://forums.3drealms.com/vb/showthread.php?t=27985 but I had to make some slight adjustments:
- Whevener the post refers to "C:/Games/Max Payne", instead substitute your "steam/steamapps/common/maxpayne" directory.
- You don't need to install the 1.05 patch.
- The installer for Max FX Tools can be found at http://maxpayne.levels4you.com/downloads.l4y?review=16675&cat=284.
- Follow the MANUAL instructions the 3DRealms poster lists first. His automating batch file at the end of the post did not work for me.
After following the above, viola! Working sound.
