"Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly."

And when I play audio file using Groove Music.
Can't play.

Have you checked the website of your PC's sound card and downloaded/installed the proper sound drivers?

I had the same problem. After hours of looking for sound drivers on the net, I finally solved the sound issue.

Here's how I did it...

Right click on volume icon
Click playback devices
Select your sound device
Click Properties
Select Advanced
Click Restore Defaults

I hope this will help.
