I'm using OpenAL on iPhone to play multiple audio samples simultaneously.
Can I get OpenAL to notify me when a single sample is done playing?
I'd like to avoid hardcoding the sample length and setting a timer.

I didn't have much luck with callbacks in OpenAL. In my state machines, I simply poll the source and delay the transition until it's done.
If this isn't what you need, then you're best bet is probably a timer. You shouldn't need to hardcode any values. You can determine the playback time when you're populating your buffers.
A bit of insight into the "why" of the question might offer some additional choices.
