Can you please search for all openal32.dll installed in your system and check their versions?

Is there any openal32.dll in the ArmA directory (there should be none)?

What is the version of the openal32.dll installed in the windows\system32 ?

It seems your version is newer than the one available at Creative Site, which is 6.14.357.22. Moreover, your openAL32.dll seems to be provided by nVidia, not Creative. Chance is the Creative installer is unable to update the installation because version numbers used by nVidia are different?

I suggest you to backup and delete both openal32.dll and wrap_oal.dll from your system32, download the installer from the Creative Site again, run it for one more time, reboot your system and hopefully it will be fixed.
