I think they use ESU Loksound.

That's what I read too, and I thing SWD source their decoders from ESU.

My guess though is that Bachmann will probably find someone in China to
manufacture them in bulk(ish).

They do. Last year I wanted an ERS "class 66". In DC the only one I
could source had sound. As I'm not into sound it was taken out and now
sees service in a EWS 66!
