I can reproduce this, and it looks like it is the result of trying to
run Java code that was compiled using a 1.5.0 JDK with a 1.4.2 JRE.  I'm
guessing it will be fixed in 9.4.10, which upgrades the Java installed
to 1.5.0.

A mildly complicated workaround is to make a copy of
/usr/dt/bin/sdtaudiocontrol (it's just a shell script) and edit it to
point JAVA_HOME at /os/usr/java rather than /usr/java, which in my
testing did get me a functional copy of the app.
