Problem: I just discovered that thunderbird 52.4.0 (64bit) on Ubuntu
Xenial can't play a wav file for new mail. The default new mail sound
can be play though.

Solution: I installed "Sound Converter" from Ubuntu Software and used it
to covert my .wav file to .ogg format (mentioned by @doxland) and tried
it on Thunderbird. It works...    :) Thanks @doxland for sharing about
.ogg format. I did not know such a sound format had existed.

Hope the Thunderbird team could make this fix seamless or at least
inform user to use only .ogg format sound file in Thunderbird.
