I know that you tried both WAV and MP3, but LOAD SOUND only takes .WAV files. Use LOAD MUSIC for an mp3 file.

Also, when providing the path to the file, try to use a path relative to your executable/code.

What he means by that is if your project sits in "C:/Dark Basic Pro/Projects/Game", and your sound (or anything else that needs to be loaded) sits in "C:/Dark Basic Pro/Projects/Game/Data/Music/MyMusic.wav", use Load Sound "Data/Music/MyMusic.wav", 1. This will prevent many many errors later on, especially for other users!
