alice-teacher Errors when trying to playback sound file within a program

[Minni Ang]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could advise me on the error below, which I
copied from my clipboard when Alice crashed when I was trying to run a
program. The crash happens when it tries to playback a sound file. I tried
using both WAV as well as MP3 files, but all give the same error. In fact, I
have never before been able to playback any soundfiles within Alice.

If I remove the call to playback sound, the program runs fine.
