Is there any caveats using PlaySoundFile ?

I'm experiencing sort of... headache, to say the least.
I havent' found a single WAV sound file so far that I can play in WoW 4.0 using PlaySoundFile. Neither any of the MP3 from my collection.
However, the 3 MP3 files that I've found in my installed addons works just fine (the only one other wave is not).

I haven't tested it any, but all the old WAV files in the MPQ archives were changed to OGG files in the Cataclysm client.

Patch 4.0.1 removed the possibility to play .wav files and added .ogg support.
And there's still the possibility to use mp3s (as you experienced already ).

Seems like that possibility is subtle. >.<
Was unable to play any of the soundtracks I had encoded in MP3... (~90% of my collection is either encoded by OGG/Vorbis or is in various tracker formats, so... so.)
