yes, there are at least two:
Peter Lagefoged’s "Sounds of the World" (or similar)
John Eslings "IPA Labels"
both are HyperCard stacks and available for free or a nominal fee. John
Esling can be reached at

Sorry, I don’t have Peter Ladefoged’s e-mail, but surely you can find him
at a WWW server of UCLA in Los Angeles.
Finally, John Wells of University College London (j.we…@ucl.ac.uk) has a
cassette with all IPA symbols pronunced by a male and a female speaker,
and he is also preparing a CD with the same contents.
