How can I make a sound play when the player goes through something that doesn’t have any colliders.

There’s a couple options:

You can detect distance and play the sound when you’re close enough. Running something like this in a MonoBehaviour.Update function would get that done:

if( (transform.position - target.transform.position).sqrMagnitude < someThreshold )

PlaySound();

Or you can make the object have a collider that’s a tigger and use the MonoBehaviour.OnTriggerEnter function. This is the more efficient way since it uses the engine to detect collisions.
