If the speed of sound depended on the frequency (pitch) of the sound, then there could be no such thing as a band or a choir performance.  Everybody on the stage would play or sing together, but by the time the sound got out to the customers in the audience, the flutes and tubas would be way apart, and so would the sopranos and the baritones.
