Does it work in Calendar after you opened a page that opens a WAV file, e.g.
http://www.osdata.com/kind/mac.htm? Sorry, I can't test this, because I don't
have a Mac myself.

In this case this is the same problem as described in bug 194632.

Stefan, you hit the nail on the head. This problem does indeed seem to be a
duplicate. It looks to me like Jon Baumgartner and Mike Pinkerton are close to a
solution. Let's hope that is true.
