My suspicion is that Activision will have tried to negotiate for ownership of the Destiny IP outright, which would naturally include ownership of any and all audio assets in Bungie's possession.

As far as I know the only way Activision gets the Destiny IP is under very specific circumstances in which Bungie completely fucks up and puts the completion of the game into a 'critical risk' category without a workable mitigation plan, or Bungie goes bankrupt.

There were rumors that Activision would get a sizable chunk of Bungie stock if Des2ny slipped to 2018, but Bungie denies this.
