Hello. I am a bit surprised that sounds from NiGHTS: Into Dreams were ripped, but not from Journey of Dreams. Is there any way to do this? I believe that the sounds are stored in the archive.arc file.

Music and anything lengthy is in the ADX files. These can be converted using VGMStream.
archive.arc is just metadata - no sounds there.
In-game voices are at hugeData/audio/PJN_voices.afs (filenames are in the .h file). This file contains ADXs - they must be extracted from it. I am not aware of any tools that can do this. Game Extractor can, but they all end up with the same filename so it just keeps overwriting the same file when extracting.
If you just want the sounds, I've uploaded them to The Sounds Resource and are available here.
But while I have got voices out of the game plus some miscellaneous sounds, I don't believe at all that I've got everything. But I can't get anything more out of the game. The SFD files are the videos (w for widescreen) - they can be previewed with VLC but would need converted for audio.

In here I've documented what I did for ripping - spoilered because it's probably not helpful.
