Hi Dee and welcome to Heroes! Within the presentation, they have been overwritten, yes. Did you import the original files as well? If you have the source files elsewhere you could reuse those.
If you have the original published version of the course, you can go to the data folder and try to decompile the slide.swf files. Here's a video that shows how it works to decompile a .swf. If that works for you, you may be able to pull out the audio files. You can do a search for free decompilers.
If you have the published version, set your PC to record audio (Audacity works for this), then connect your speaker output to your mic input and record the audio from the course. Here's a tutorial that explains how to do it. An easy way to break the one long audio track into pieces is to open a new ppt and insert the audio using Presenter. Then in the audio editor, use the set next slide feature to break the audio into slides. Then export the slides. Here's a post that shows the idea.

So no way to get them back? Would they have also be saved any other place?
Hi Dee,
Unfortunately, if you overwrite the source files and don't have them backed up somewhere, I'm not aware of any way you'll be able to recover them.
Two ideas:
Awesome.
