The velocity of a traveling wave is dependent on the composition of the conducting medium. Not directly on frequency. Though many conductive media are frequency dispersive - they conduct different frequencies at different speeds.

Thus we get our rainbow. In air, sound travels about 300m/sec. But in water, about three times that velocity. And in metals, about ten times that velocity.
