Why doesn't my wav music file play in Qsound?

Question

This is my code :

from PyQt5.QtMultimedia import QSound
QSound("1.wav").play()

It doesn't play the music. The file is 37 MB.

You have to create a QXXXAplication to create the necessary loop to reproduce the sound, on the other hand the correct thing is to create the object and then make play():

from PyQt5.QtCore import QCoreApplication
from PyQt5.QtMultimedia import QSound
import sys

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = QCoreApplication(sys.argv)
    sound = QSound("1.wav")
    sound.play()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

Or if you just want to play and not modify any feature, use the static play() method:

from PyQt5.QtCore import QCoreApplication
from PyQt5.QtMultimedia import QSound
import sys

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = QCoreApplication(sys.argv)
    QSound.play("1.wav")
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

Obs:

If you want to use it inside a GUI you must change QCoreApplication to QApplication. I'm also assuming that the .wav file is next to the .py file.
