No matter what we have tried, sound effects don't seem to play in our project. No error messages, they simply don't play. I tried making a new channel, but nothing changed.
And if that wasn't bad enough, the music actually does cause an error message to pop up.
For whatever reason, I've had trouble with certain .WAV files not playing... and have not been able to figure out why they're different from the .WAV files that do work. But .OGG files seem to work universally, take up less space, and will sound fine to everyone but the most persnickety audiophiles.

Thanks! You just solved the second half of the problem. My brother is a bit of an audiophile, but I don't think the change will bother him.
