Much better: YouTube - Audio de la caja negra del accidente de LAPA (completo)
Unfortunately I don't speak spanish, and I don't pilot, but isn't there too much conversation going on to take any notice of what the airplane is telling them?
Having tested config warnings on the 737 hundreds of times I don't know how you could miss it. Wrong config and it sounds as soon as you advance the throttles just as in the video/audio.

Only possibility I can think of is noise cancelling headsets, and too much verbal masking the horn.
The pilots are talking nonsense with a CC woman, and you can hear that one of them says that everything is all right when the alarm sounds. The whole thing was about lack of maintenance of the planes and poor trainement of the pilots.
