There is no way I have fond to do it directly, I use prefab player to
accomplish this:

-- this script requires QuickTime Pro and PreFab Player
--(another macro program will do i.e. OneClick, QuickKeys, etc.)

tell application "Finder"
set my_movie to (open file (choose file with prompt "Select a movie to add
the sound to."))
set my_movie_name to name of (info for my_movie)
end tell
tell application "QuickTime Player"
tell movie my_movie_name to select all
end tell
tell application "PreFab Player"
do menu menu item "Copy" of menu "Edit"
end tell
tell application "Finder"
set my_sound to (open file (choose file with prompt "Select a sound file
to add."))
set my_sound_name to name of (info for my_sound)
end tell
tell application "QuickTime Player"
activate
tell movie my_sound_name to select all
end tell
tell application "PreFab Player"
do menu menu item "Paste" of menu "Edit" holding command & shift & option
end tell
tell application "QuickTime Player" to tell movie my_movie_name to close
