You can only use:

Audio files .wav, .snd, .au, .aif, .aifc, .aiff
MIDI files .mid, .rmi, .midi
Real Media files .ra, .rm, .ram, .rmm

not mp3 or .wma.  You do it with the background sound.

OE/ Format/ Background/ Sound - navigate.  The fileselector shows the
extensions which can be used.  The alert when the sound fails to play
may be about a 'picture' rather than sound.
