I don't know if this totally applies to your situation, but I found that I
had to use a different CFHEADER value for Mac. The other part of this (the
fileMimeType) was to force the browser to pop up a "save as" dialog box --
that was a requirement of the App I was doing -- this keep the excel file
from opening in a browser window.
<cfif os is "MAC">
<cfset headerValue = "attachment; filename=#fileName#">
<cfset fileMimeType = "application/x-msexcel">
<cfelse>
<cfset headerValue = "filename=#fileName#">
<cfset fileMimeType = "application/unknown"
</cfif>
<CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition"
VALUE="#headerValue#">
<CFCONTENT TYPE="#fileMimeType#"
DELETEFILE="yes"
FILE="#tmpDir#\#fileName#"
RESET="yes">

Still happening. Is there something I need to do on the server side?

Give this a shot:
<CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition" VALUE="attachment;
filename=file.mp3">
<CFCONTENT TYPE="unknown" FILE="c:\archive\file.mp3" DELETEFILE="No">
