I've just now tried that, but still nothing happens. By the way, what's UIA?

Please try all of them...
As doug pointed nicely, we need to know more, like:
1. swich to screen echo to all and change the sliders, if value changes
and text gets written to screen, JAWS would read it, perhaps it is on
the status line, etc.
2. using homerow utilities, try using tab and shift+tab, f2 and added
shift with it, to find the text window whose text has just changed on
slider change.
if no avail, I am afraid there may be no possibilities perhaps, don't
know about UIA approach though.
3. there may be another thing which used to be with goldwave earlier,
and after a talk to Chris, I made him correct it.
resting the mouse on the slider, the current value was displayed for a
flash and vanished soon, and he correct as I have said.
If so, this can also be resolved with some scripts.
You can do another thing, and perhaps it is the last one, try windig on
this application, and read or mail us the report, and we shall see if
slider values are shown in MSAA, plane text or UIA.
Note that different handles are a great sign as they helps navigate the
windows using window nav functions (get focus, current window, top level
etc).
I hope this helps,
