Yes, I believe VirtualDub can add the sound...

Clearly I've been trying the wrong codecs... Every one I try results in
extremly poor quality video. (Haven't tried DivX - I would imagine I don't
have the ability to encode, only decode. Haven't checked tho.) MPEG-I is a
very common, widely supported format, and it doesn't seem to mangle the
video too much. (The sound appears to be identical - kinda impressive. I'm
pretty sure it IS being compressed...)
