Hi;

Tried
]$ aplay ~/Music/babycry.wav

I got the following error message:

aplay: test_wavefile:807: can't play WAVE-file format 0x0055 which is
not PCM or FLOAT encoded.

What does it mean?  How can I fix it?

Tried a couple of Ubuntu solutions from a year ago I found on the
internet.  They didn't help.

I do get sound with mplayer.
