Why does this work?
run script alias "iMac HD:Library:Scripts:Universal Scripts:SetSoundVolume"

and this doesn't?
run script alias "startup disk:Library:Scripts:Universal Scripts:SetSoundVolume" -- File not found

My goal is to make a script that will work on two machines.

Because different machines may have different names for the startup disk, you probably want to use the 'path to' scripting addition to give you the path to the Scripts folder on the machine on which the script is running:

set thePath to ((path to scripts folder as string) & "Universal Scripts:SetSoundVolume"
run script alias thePath
