I tried your code as you suggested, recompiled and okayed the replacement of 
the ProgressBarChangedEvent would be replaced, but did not hear any jgauge 
beeps when triggered something that normally results a spoken progress.

the jgauge sounds are in the ...settings/enu/sounds/jgauge/.

do I have to turn off progress announcements, because I didn't when i tried

Insert the followign in Default.jss and load Doug Lee's JGauge sound
files in your Settings\Enu\Sounds\JGauge directory:

void function ProgressBarChangedEvent(handle hProgress, string sName,
string sValue)
VAR
string fName

if !GetJCFOption ( OPT_PROGRESSBAR_UPDATE_INTERVAL ) then
return
endIf
let fName = getJAWSSettingsDirectory() +"\\SOUNDS\\JGauge\\GAUGE" +
stringChopRight ( sValue , stringContains ( sValue , "%" ) - 1 )
+".wav"
playSound ( fName )
endFunction
