To avoid having to create a dummy sound definition, you can use $NONE$ instead.
private "_trigger"; _trigger = createTrigger ["EmptyDetector", position player]; _trigger setTriggerStatements ["true", "", ""]; _trigger setSoundEffect ["$NONE$", "", "BattlefieldExplosions3", ""];

When using this function, I found that if the parameter sound was empty, then you would always get a 'Sound not found' error. The following code fixes this problem. You need to create a dummy sound. This is what example 3 is hinting towards.
description.ext:
class CfgSounds { sounds[] = {}; class NoSound { name = "NoSound"; sound[] = {"", 0, 1}; titles[] = {}; }; // Dummy sound needed for setSoundEffect command, due to bug in engine. };
(code sample above written by 'CarlGustaffa' on the Bohemia Interactive forums.)
script.sqf:_trigger = createTrigger [ "EmptyDetector" , _position ]; _trigger setTriggerStatements [ "true" , "" , "" ]; _trigger setSoundEffect [ "NoSound" , "" , "" , "Wind2_EP1" ];
